After radiation therapy for breast cancer, the risk of sarcoma, lung cancer, and other breast cancers have been described in the medical literature. From France, we have reports on thousands of women treated with radiation therapy for breast cancer over the last few decades.enerally, the risk of developing a radiation induced malignancy after treatment of cancer is very small, though certainly a scary thought. Remarkably though, radiotherapy related cancers account for a small minority of second cancers which develop in patients after treatment for a first cancer.
Radiotherapy can have side effects that occur both during and after the treatment. In the first weeks after beginning radiation therapy, you may notice reddening or swelling of the skin over the breast area and fatigue or tiredness. These problems usually disappear within 3 to 6 months. In the first 5 years after treatment, you may experience discomfort, pain, swelling, discolouration or other skin changes in the breast area. However, over 90% of women are satisfied with the appearance of the breast after lumpectomy and radiation treatment.
