In rare cases, radiation\u2010induced side effects such as posterior pharyngeal wall necrosis, fistula formation, and osteoradionecrosis (ORN) can lead to dangerous complications of the cervical spine (C\u2010spine).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>We conducted a literature review on C\u2010spine ORN in HNC, and we reported four additional cases following the treatment of oropharyngeal carcinoma.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>We identified 26 reported cases of C\u2010spine ORN following radiation for HNC. Of the four cases from our institution, two were treated with surgical management and two with conservative measures. Two patients were able to resume oral intake.
