Bony metastases preoperative embolization

For hyper vascular tumours like renal cell carcinoma and thyroid carcinoma, preoperative embolization of metastases was first described. The main goal of this systematic review was to find long bone metastases that could benefit from preoperative embolization to reduce perioperative blood loss and blood transfusions. Because any less than total devascularization increases blood loss and red blood cell transfusion during surgery, interventional radiologists should pursue and embolize every feeder to the metastasis.

When cancer cells move from their initial place to a bone, this is called bone metastasis.

 Almost all cancers can move to the bones (metastasize). However, some cancers, such as breast cancer and prostate cancer, are more prone to spread to the bones. In the treatment of bone metastases, transcatheter embolization is effective and reliable. 

 When surgery is planned, a catheter can be inserted into an artery (typically in the leg, as for a cardiac angiography) and a tiny catheter threaded up through it to the tumor's artery or arteries. A substance is injected to cut off the tumor's blood supply (this is called embolization).  

Preoperative embolization treatments are constantly improving, allowing surgeons to conduct or improve the results of forthcoming surgical interventions.
