Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the mandible is a severe complication that follows ionizing radiation therapy in patients undergoing treatment for head and neck cancers. The occurrence of ORN usually implies other coexisting problems and should not be thought of as a "bone only" defect. For treatment to be effective, all tissues involved must be addressed.
下颌骨放射性骨坏死(ORN)是头颈部癌症患者接受电离辐射治疗后出现的一种严重并发症。ORN的发生通常意味着存在其他并存问题,不应被视为仅局限于骨骼的缺损。为使治疗有效,必须对所有受累组织进行处理。
