Abstract
Bone metastases are the most common cause of pain in cancer patients. Pain management in cancer patients, often revealing the disease and always present at advanced stages, is an important and difficult task. Pain is not always properly controlled by high doses of specific medication, radiation therapy or chemotherapy. When these therapies do not provide adequate pain relief, percutaneous neurolysis, infiltrations, alcoholizations and cementoplasty may be considered. More recently RF ablation has been proposed. On weight-bearing bones, RF can be combined with acrylic cement injection. The authors present here this very effective new technique which is complementary to classical pain management techniques.
