  • Title: [Association of post-radiation focal muscular atrophy and hypertrophy].
    Author: Serratrice G, Sangla I, Pouget J, Azulay JP.
    Journal: Rev Neurol (Paris); 1993; 149(12):812-4. PubMed ID: 7997747.
    Abstract:
    We report a 48 year old woman who had radiotherapy for uterine carcinoma and who developed amyotrophy and muscle hypertrophy in one lower limb. Very few cases of post-radiation monomelic amyotrophy have been reported. On the other hand denervation hypertrophy was presumed to be well known. The seat of the lesions was presumed to be radicular and spinal. The mechanism of atrophy and hypertrophy is discussed.
