Abstract

In the last few decades, interventional radiology (IR) has significantly increased its role in the management of bone tumours including bone metastases (BM) that represent the most common type of tumour involving the bone. The current IR management of BM is based on the 'palliative-curative' paradigm and relies on the use of consolidative (i.e. osteplasty, osteosynthesis) and/or ablation (i.e. cryoablation, radiofrequency ablation, electrochemotherapy) techniques. The present narrative review will overview the current role of IR for the management of BM.
