Popis: Systemic treatment for cancer including chemotherapy or biologic agents can cause different changes in the skin or mucous membranes. These changes may represent a known adverse reaction to these drugs, although other etiologies should be considered. One of these, radiation recall dermatitis, is a rare and unpredictable phenomenon. Herein, we report two cases of this condition in women with metastatic breast cancer secondary to gemcitabine and the combination of capecitabine and ixabepilone.
