Abstract
Percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) represents a powerful tool in the management of oncology patients who suffer from painful osteolytic spinal lesions, due to the minimally invasive nature of the procedure. However, there have been few reports on the role of PKP in the treatment of osteoblastic metastatic spinal lesions. We report our experience of the treatment of six patients with painful osteoblastic metastatic spinal lesions using PKP. Immediate relief of pain and improvement of functional status were achieved in all of them without PKP-related complications, which may encourage more studies of PKP in the palliative treatment of patients with painful osteoblastic metastatic spinal lesions.
