title: Radiation recall dermatitis with azithromycin.
abstract: Radiation recall is a well-known phenomenon that involves the "recall" of an acute inflammatory reaction in a previously irradiated region after administration of certain drugs. The most common type of radiation recall is radiation recall dermatitis, which involves the reoccurrence of an acute inflammatory skin reaction in previously irradiated skin. Most radiation recall reactions are attributable to chemotherapeutic agents. One previously reported case of radiation recall dermatitis occurred after administration of an antibiotic. The present case report is the second of radiation recall dermatitis involving an antibiotic: azithromycin.
