✦ Synopsis

Treatment‐induced cancer is one of the greatest fears of patients receiving radiotherapy for breast carcinoma. Recent data suggest that radiation also may increase the risk of developing lung carcinoma. In their article, Deutsch et al. report rates of lung carcinoma development in 3515 breast carcinoma patients treated on the National Surgical Bowel and Breast Project (NSABP) B‐04 and B‐06 trials. These data are particularly valuable because both trials tested radiation as a randomized variable and both studies now have 20‐year outcome information.
