Radiation Necrosis

Radial necrosis is a condition where the radius bone or part of an arm or leg becomes necrotic, meaning dead. This occurs due to damage to the blood vessels that supply blood and oxygen to the area.

Radiation necrosis can result from various causes, such as trauma, infection, or nerve damage. This process can cause tissue to begin to break down, which can lead to pain, swelling and inflammation.

When necrosis occurs, the body attempts to repair damaged tissue with new cells. However, if this process is not successful, the area may develop scar tissue that cannot function properly.

Symptoms of radial necrosis include severe pain, swelling, redness, and loss of limb function. There is often stiffness of movement and difficulty raising the arm or rotating the elbow.

Treatment for necrosis of the limb includes antibiotics to fight the infection, rehabilitation to restore limb function, and surgery if necessary.

It is important to note that necrosis is a serious medical problem, and when the first symptoms appear, you should consult a doctor for diagnosis and treatment.



Radial nerve necrosis is an inflammatory disease of the nerve that lies near the shoulder joint and provides strength and flexibility to the arm. The term radionecrosis refers to the lack of strength or functionality in the affected arm due to damage or death of nerve fibers.

Causes There are several risk factors that can lead to radial nerve necrosis: trauma, infection, nerve rupture during surgery or postoperative treatment. Other causes include diseases such as diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, atherosclerosis and thyroid disease.

Symptoms of the disease are as follows: * Numbness or loss of sensation in the arm below the elbow joint, especially along the back of the affected arm. *Arm pain, most often experienced on the inside of the hand and above the elbow. The pain may also spread to the shoulder, back of the arm, and elbow. * Paresis or paralysis in the hand, arm, or arm in general, causing the muscles and tendons in the affected arm to not move properly or even
