Abstract :
Side effects seen after many years of radiotherapy are defined as long-term side effects. Radiation necrosis is one of the most common long-term complications which is followed by secondary cancers. We have presented a case of glioblastoma multiforme detected in only 11 months after radiotherapy, and discussed the rarely reported case in detail.
