Radiation-induced skin injury has been reported for multiple fluoroscopic procedures. Previous studies have indicated that prolonged fluoroscopic exposure during even a single percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) may lead to cutaneous radiation injury. We document a novel case of deep muscle damage requiring wide local debridement and muscle flap reconstruction in a 59-year-old man with a large radiation-induced wound to the lower thoracic region following 1 prolonged PCI procedure. The deep muscular iatrogenic injury described in this report may be the source of significant morbidity. Recommendations to reduce radiation-induced damage include careful examination of the skin site before each procedure, minimized fluoroscopy time, utilization of pulse fluoroscopy, employment of radiation filters, and collimator s and rotation of the location of the image intensifier.
