Abstract
Improvement in cancer therapy has led to increasing number of cancer survivors, some of whom have previously been treated with mediastinal radiation. Cardiac complication may manifest years after completion of radiation therapy. Hence long-term follow-up is essential in these patients. In this paper, we have discussed the short- and long-term cardiovascular side effects of radiation therapy.Entities:
