A 42-year-old woman developed lower extremity weakness and sensory loss 1 year after external and intracavitary radiotherapy for Stage IB carcinoma of cervix. She has been followed for 5 years posttreatment, and the neurologic abnormalities have persisted, but no evidence of recurrent carcinoma has been found. We believe this to be a rare case of sacral plexus radiculopathy developing as a late complication after radiotherapy. Suggestions are made for improving the radiotherapy technique to prevent this complication in future cases.
一名42岁女性在接受宫颈癌IB期体外和腔内放疗1年后出现下肢无力和感觉丧失。治疗后她已被随访5年，神经学异常持续存在，但未发现复发癌的证据。我们认为这是一例放疗后作为晚期并发症发生的骶丛神经根病罕见病例。针对改进放疗技术以预防未来病例出现这种并发症提出了建议。
