A sugárkezelés indukálta heterotop szövetkalcifikáció az irradiáció rendkívül ritka szövődménye a fej-nyaki régióban. Esetismertetésünkben egy nagy kiterjedésű, kombinált – subcutan és intramuscularis elhelyezkedésű –, sugárkezelés indukálta heterotop kalcifikációt mutatunk be a nyaki régióban. A 80 éves férfi beteg 2 hónapja tartó nyelési nehezítettség és a nyakon kialakult fájdalmas, fekélyszerű elváltozás miatt jelentkezett klinikánkon. 42 évvel ezelőtt T3N0M0-stádiumú glotticus laphámcarcinoma miatt teljes gégeeltávolításban, valamint 80 Gy összdózisú radioterápiában részesült. A szövettani és a CT-vizsgálat kizárta a residualis vagy a másodlagos malignitás lehetőségét. A CT-angiográfia kiterjedt subcutan és intramuscularis kalcifikációt mutatott a nyaki bőrfekély, illetve a hypopharynx falának közvetlen közelében, valamint az arteria carotis communis és az arteria vertebralis kétoldali teljes elzáródását írta le. A sebészi kezelés során a meszesedett terület eltávolítását követően a defektust fasciocutan transzpozíciós lebennyel zártuk. A páciens az elmúlt 48 hónapban tünetmentesnek bizonyult. A sugárkezelés elengedhetetlen szerepet játszik a fej-nyaki régió laphámrákjainak kezelésében. A nagyban deformált posztoperatív anatómia, a kiterjedt hegképződés, a sugárkezelés okozta fibrosis, valamint a bőr és a bőr alatti szövetek kalcifikációja összességében szokatlan, atípusos elváltozások kialakulásához vezethet.
