AbstractEighteen patients (11 renal tumours, 3 bronchogenic carcinomas, 4 others) with 24 different bone metastases were embolized for preoperative devascularization (11 x) or for intractable pain (7 x). Metastases were localized in the spine (17 x), pelvis (5 x), and shoulder girdle (2 x). All metastases were hypervascularized. Post-embolization showed no complications. Intraoperative blood loss was minimized to 2100 ml (600 ml-4200 ml). Pain relief was achieved in 6 out of 7 patients. Eight of 18 patients died as a result of underlying diseases (follow-up 7 months).
