Conclusion

Taken as stand-alone therapy or performed as a preoperative measure, embolization of bone metastases is an interesting procedure for use in severely painful hyper-vascularized metastases. Best results are achieved in its facilitative pre-op role, but it also increases patients’ pain-free survival. It can also be used following massive doses of radiotherapy administered for purely palliative purposes.
