Radiation‐Induced Skin Toxicity Risk in Breast Cancer Patients With Atopic or Allergic Conditions

Key Points

• This research aims to examine the effect of atopic conditions on radiation-induced skin toxicity in breast cancer patients.
• Investigated breast cancer patients with atopic conditions
• Assessed acute and long-term skin toxicity risk
• Monitored dermatologic morbidity up to 36 months post-radiotherapy.
• Atopy significantly increases the risk of acute radiation skin toxicity.
• Elevated dermatologic morbidity persists for 36 months after radiotherapy.
