case_images: The right humerus was directly in the beam at the port [see Fig. 2(a)]. About three weeks after the procedure, a bright erythema was demonstrated [Fig. 2(b)]. The condition worsened and at five months a large ulcer the size of the collimated x-ray port developed [Fig. 2(c)]. At eight months a debridement was performed and a surgical flap was put in place [Figs. 2(d) and 2(e)].
