Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pelvic metastasis is a common presentation among patients presenting with skeletal metastasis. Image-guided percutaneous cementation of these lesions is becoming increasingly popular for the treatment of these lesions. The objective of this study was to conduct a systematic review that investigates clinical outcomes after percutaneous cementation for pelvic metastasis. METHODS A systematic review was registered with International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews and performed according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines using the PubMed, SCOPUS, and Ovid MEDLINE databases. All level I to IV clinical studies published in the English language investigating the clinical outcomes after percutaneous cementation for pelvic metastasis were included. RESULTS Fourteen studies with 579 patients (278 men, 301 women) and 631 metastatic pelvic lesions were included in the study. The mean follow-up range was 0.7 to 26.4 months. Percutaneous cementation alone was performed in 441 patients (76.2%). Supplemental ablative procedures were performed in 77 patients (13.3%), and supplemental internal fixation using cannulated screws was performed in 107 patients (18.5%). Twelve studies with 430 patients (74.2%) reported pain-related and/or functional outcome scores, of which all studies reported overall clinically notable improvement at short-term follow-up. All studies reported periprocedural complications. Local cement leakage was the most common complication (162/631 lesions, 25.7%) followed by transient local pain (25/579 patients, 4.3%). There were no reported cases of major complications. Seven patients (1.2%) underwent re-intervention for persistent symptoms. CONCLUSIONS Percutaneous cementation may be an effective method for treating pain and function related to pelvic metastasis. The most common complication was cement leakage surrounding the lesion. The rates of major complications were low, and most complications appeared minor and transient. Additional prospective studies are needed to further assess the efficacy of this procedure. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV, systematic review of level I to IV therapeutic studies.

Abstract
Painful skeletal osteolytic metastases, impending pathological fractures, and nondisplaced fractures present as a devastating clinical problem in advanced stage cancer patients. Open surgical approaches provide excellent mechanical stabilization but are often associated with high complication rates and slow recovery times. Percutaneous minimally invasive interventions have arisen as a pragmatic and logical treatment option for patients with late-stage cancer in whom open surgery may be contraindicated. These percutaneous interventions minimize soft tissue dissection, allow for the immediate initiation or resumption of chemotherapies, and present with fewer complications. This review provides the most up-to-date technical and conceptual framework for the minimally invasive management of osseous metastases with particular focus on periacetabular lesions. Fundamental topics discussed are as follows: (1) pathogenesis of cancer-induced bone loss and the importance of local cytoreduction to restore bone quality, (2) anatomy and biomechanics of the acetabulum as a weight-bearing zone, (3) overview of ablation options and cement/screw techniques, and (4) combinatorial approaches. Future studies should include additional studies with more long-term follow-up to better assess mechanical durability of minimally invasive interventions. An acetabulum-specific functional and pain scoring framework should be adopted to allow for better cross-study comparison.

Abstract
Bone consolidation is increasingly used in the treatment of both benign and malignant bone conditions. Percutaneous vertebroplasty, for example, has been shown to be useful in vertebral compression fractures in the VAPOUR trial which showed its superiority to placebo for pain reduction in the treatment of acute vertebral compressive fractures. Further tools have since been developed, such as kyphoplasty, spinal implants, and even developments in bone cements itself in attempt to improve outcome, such as chemotherapy-loaded cement or cement replacements such as radio-opaque silicon polymer. More importantly, bone fixation and its combination with cement have been increasingly performed to improve outcome. Interventional radiologists must first know the tools available, before they can best plan for their patients. This review article will focus on the tool box available for the modern interventional radiologist.

The New Ice Age of Musculoskeletal Intervention: Role of Percutaneous Cryoablation in Bone and Soft Tissue Tumors. Curr Oncol 2023; 30:6744-6770.

Abstract
In the rapidly evolving field of interventional oncology, minimally invasive methods, including CT-guided cryoablation, play an increasingly important role in tumor treatment, notably in bone and soft tissue cancers. Cryoablation works using compressed gas-filled probes to freeze tumor cells to temperatures below -20 °C, exploiting the Joule-Thompson effect. This cooling causes cell destruction by forming intracellular ice crystals and disrupting blood flow through endothelial cell damage, leading to local ischemia and devascularization. Coupling this with CT technology enables precise tumor targeting, preserving healthy surrounding tissues and decreasing postoperative complications. This review reports the most important literature on CT-guided cryoablation's application in musculoskeletal oncology, including sarcoma, bone metastases, and bone and soft tissue benign primary tumors, reporting on the success rate, recurrence rate, complications, and technical aspects to maximize success for cryoablation in the musculoskeletal system.

Abstract
➤ Periacetabular osteolytic skeletal metastases are frequently associated with pain and impaired ambulatory function. Minimally invasive techniques allow for the restoration of ambulation without interrupting critical systemic cancer therapy. ➤ The open surgical management of massive periacetabular osteolytic lesions, such as by curettage, internal fixation, or complex total hip reconstruction, is associated with blood loss, hospitalization, rehabilitation, and complications such as infection or delayed wound-healing. ➤ Minimally invasive percutaneous procedures have become increasingly popular for the management of periacetabular osteolytic metastases by interventional oncologists and orthopaedic surgeons before complex open surgical procedures are considered. ➤ Minimally invasive procedures may include various methods of cancer ablation and reinforcement techniques. Minimally invasive procedures may entail cancer ablation, polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) cement reinforcement, balloon osteoplasty, percutaneous screw fixation, or combinations of the aforementioned techniques (e.g., ablation-osteoplasty-reinforcement-internal fixation [AORIF]).

Abstract
Background Osteolytic neoplasms to periacetabular bone frequently cause pain and fractures. Immediate recovery is integral to lifesaving ambulatory oncologic care and maintaining quality of life. Yet, open acetabular reconstructive surgeries are associated with numerous complications that delay cancer treatments. Purpose To determine the effectiveness for short- and long-term pain and ambulatory function following percutaneous ablation, osteoplasty, reinforcement, and internal fixation (AORIF) for periacetabular osteolytic neoplasm. Materials and Methods This retrospective observational study evaluated clinical data from 50 patients (mean age, 65 years ± 14 [SD]; 25 men, 25 women) with osteolytic periacetabular metastases or myeloma. The primary outcome of combined pain and ambulatory function index score (range, 1 [bedbound] through 10 [normal ambulation]) was assessed before and after AORIF at 2 weeks and then every 3 months up to 40 months (overall median follow-up, 11 months [IQR, 4-14 months]). Secondary outcomes included Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score, infection, transfusion, 30-day readmission, mortality, and conversion hip arthroplasty. Serial radiographs and CT images were obtained to assess the hip joint integrity. The paired t test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test and Kaplan-Meier analysis were used to analyze data. Results Mean combined pain and ambulatory function index scores improved from 4.5 ± 2.4 to 7.8 ± 2.1 (P < .001) and median ECOG scores from 3 (IQR, 2-4) to 1 (IQR, 1-2) (P < .001) at the first 2 weeks after AORIF. Of 22 nonambulatory patients, 19 became ambulatory on their first post-AORIF visit. Pain and functional improvement were retained beyond 1 year, up to 40 months after AORIF in surviving patients. No hardware failures, surgical site infections, readmissions, or delays in care were identified following AORIF. Of 12 patients with protrusio acetabuli, one patient required a conversion hemiarthroplasty at 24 months. Conclusion The ablation, osteoplasty, reinforcement, and internal fixation, or AORIF, technique was effective for short- and long-term improvement of pain and ambulatory function in patients with periacetabular osteolytic neoplasm. © RSNA, 2023.

Abstract
The musculoskeletal system is commonly involved by metastases, and skeletal-related events such as intractable pain due to direct osseous tumor involvement, pathologic fracture, and neurologic deficits as a result of nerve compression often adversely affect patient's quality of life. There have been substantial advances in percutaneous minimally invasive musculoskeletal oncologic interventions for the management of patients with musculoskeletal metastases including thermal ablations, cementation with or without osseous reinforcement via implants, osteosynthesis, neurolysis, and palliative injections which are progressively incorporated in clinical practice. These interventions are performed, in conjunction with or supplemented by adjuvant radiation therapy, systemic therapy, surgery, or analgesics, to achieve durable pain palliation, local tumor control, or cure. This article reviews minimally invasive percutaneous image-guided musculoskeletal oncologic interventions for the management of patients with extraspinal musculoskeletal metastases.

Abstract
Metastasis accounts for nearly half of pathologic acetabular reconstructions. Increasing use of combined percutaneous ablation, cementoplasty, and osteosynthesis. Harrington or MAC classification may lead to overtreatment of acetabular lesions. Know indications for joint-sparing reconstruction; consider use in select patients.
Classically, patients with advanced lytic disease of the acetabulum secondary to metastatic bone disease are treated with complex arthroplasty reconstruction techniques. Advancements in percutaneous techniques have extended the indications for safer, minimally invasive procedures for patients with periacetabular metastasis without the need for complex hip replacement and the complications that follow it. The purpose of this report is to revisit the management of this group of patients and provide indications for an alternative minimally invasive joint-sparing technique. We describe a novel technique using a combination of percutaneous cryoablation, cementoplasty and two-screw fixation. With careful consideration of indications, excellent functional and oncologic outcomes one year after surgery is possible without the need for additional procedures.

Abstract
Bone is the third most common site involved by cancer metastases, and skeleton-related events such as intractable pain due to direct osseous tumor involvement, pathologic fracture, and neurologic deficits as a consequence of nerve or spinal cord compression often affect patients' functional independence and quality of life unfavorably. The annual medical-economic burden related to bone metastases is a substantial component of the total direct medical cost estimated by the National Institutes of Health. There have been substantial recent advances in percutaneous image-guided minimally invasive musculoskeletal oncologic interventions for the management of patients with osseous metastatic disease. These advances include thermal ablation, cementation with or without osseous reinforcement with implants, osteosynthesis, thermal and chemical neurolyses, and palliative injections, which are progressively incorporated into the management paradigm for such patients. These interventions are performed in conjunction with or are supplemented by adjuvant radiation therapy, systemic therapy, surgery, or analgesic agents to achieve durable pain palliation, local tumor control, or cure, and they provide a robust armamentarium for interventional radiologists to achieve safe and effective treatment in a multidisciplinary setting. In addition, these procedures are shifting the patient management paradigm in modern-era practice. The authors detail the state of the art in minimally invasive percutaneous image-guided musculoskeletal oncologic interventions and the role of radiologists in managing patients with skeletal metastases. ©RSNA, 2021.

Abstract
The pelvis is a common site of metastatic bone disease. Peri-acetabular lesions are particularly challenging and can cause severe pain, disability and pathologic fractures. Surgical management of these lesions has historically consisted of cementoplasty for contained lesions and Harrington reconstructions for larger, more destructive lesions. Due to the limitations of these procedures, a number of novel procedures have been developed to manage this challenging problem. Percutaneous techniques—including acetabular screw fixation and cementoplasty augmented with screws—have been developed to minimize surgical morbidity. Recent literature has demonstrated a reliable reduction in pain and improvement in function in appropriately selected patients. Several adjuncts to the Harrington procedure have been utilized in recent years to reduce complication rates. The use of constrained liners and dual mobility bearings have reduced the historically high dislocation rates. Cage constructs and porous tantalum implants are becoming increasingly common in the management of large bony defects and destructive lesions. With novel and evolving surgical techniques, surgeons are presented with a variety of surgical options to manage this challenging condition. Physicians must take into account the patients’ overall health status, oncologic prognosis and anatomic location and extent of disease when developing an appropriate surgical plan.

Abstract
As interventional oncology services within radiology mature, image-guided ablation techniques are increasingly applied to recurrent gynecologic malignancies. Ablation may be performed using thermal techniques like cryoablation, microwave ablation, or radiofrequency ablation, as well as non-thermal ones, such as focused ultrasound or irreversible electroporation. Feasibility and approach depend on tumor type, size, number, anatomic location, proximity of critical structures, and goals of therapy. Current indications include local control of limited metastatic disease or palliation of painful bone metastases refractory or unsuitable to conventional therapies. Technical aspects of these procedures, including methods to protect nearby critical structures are presented through illustrative examples. Cases amenable to image-guided ablation include, but are not limited to, hepatic or pulmonary metastases, musculoskeletal metastases, retroperitoneal nodal metastases, pelvic side wall disease, abdominal wall disease, and vaginal or vulvar tumors. Protective maneuvers, such as hydro-displacement of bowel, neuromonitoring, and retrograde pyeloperfusion through ureteral stents, permit safe ablation despite close proximity to vulnerable nerves or organs. Image-guided ablation offers an alternative modality to achieve local tumor control without the risks associated with surgery or systemic treatment in appropriately selected patients. A multidisciplinary approach to use of image-guided ablation includes collaboration between gynecologic oncology, interventional radiology, anesthesia, urology and radiation oncology teams allowing for appropriate patient-centered case selection. Long-term follow up and additional studies are needed to determine the oncologic benefits of such techniques.

Abstract
Neoplastic disease of the musculoskeletal system may result in serious morbidity and mortality secondary to cancer related bone pain, pathologic fracture, altered structural mechanics, and involvement of adjacent structures.1 Recent advances in cancer detection and treatment have allowed more patients to live longer. The prevalence of osseous metastatic disease has increased to 100,000 new patients developing bone metastases each year.2 These patients are seeing long-term exposure to chemotherapy and radiation leading to increased skeletal events, morbidity, and a negative impact on quality of life. Bone metastases in conjunction with poor bone quality often prevent surgical therapy. Utilization of thermal ablation in this patient population is supported by contemporary literature and offers a minimally invasive approach to pain palliation, local tumor control, and decreased morbidity with unique advantages compared to surgery or radiation.3 In addition to spine disease, interventional radiologists are able to meaningfully impact pelvic, shoulder girdle, and long bone metastases. Adding to ablation we have in our repertoire the ability to provide structural support utilizing cement and/or screw fixation as an adjunct for both pain palliation and mechanical stabilization.4-6 These novel therapies have allowed more patients with metastatic disease to be treated. The focus of this chapter is to highlight importance of patient selection, ablative modality selection, integration of cementoplasty (also described as osteoplasty) and osseous fixation, and procedural techniques/strategy in the pelvis and other common sites of bone metastases outside the spine.

Abstract
Image-guided percutaneous thermal ablation plays an increasingly important role in the multidisciplinary management of musculoskeletal lesions. Established indications for ablation in this setting include the treatment of osteoid osteomas, palliation of painful skeletal metastases, local control of oligometastatic disease, and consolidation of bone tumors at risk for fracture. Emerging indications include the treatment of symptomatic soft tissue masses such as extra-abdominal desmoid tumors and abdominal wall endometriosis. This review will discuss considerations in patient selection and preprocedural workup, ablation technology and techniques, strategies to avoid complications, and expected outcomes of ablation in the musculoskeletal system.

Minimally Invasive Image-Guided Ablation, Osteoplasty, Reinforcement, and Internal Fixation (AORIF) for Osteolytic Lesions in the Pelvis and Periarticular Regions of Weight-Bearing Bones. J Vasc Interv Radiol 2020; 31:649-658.e1. [PMID: 32139256 DOI: 10.1016/j.jvir.2019.11.029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2019] [Revised: 11/21/2019] [Accepted: 11/26/2019] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To assess early outcome, safety, and complications of an alternative to open surgical treatments of osteolytic lesions in periarticular load-bearing bones. MATERIALS AND METHODS A single-center, prospective clinical cohort study of 26 lesions in 23 consecutive patients with painful osteolytic skeletal lesions was performed. Patients were followed for an average of 7 mo (1-18 mo). Lesions were targeted from the most intact bone via minimally invasive percutaneous approach for stable anchorage of internal fixation screws using fluoroscopic guidance. Cannulated screws served as universal portals for ablation, balloon osteoplasty, and delivery of bone cement in addition to internal fixation for cement anchoring and prophylactic stabilization of uninvolved bone. RESULTS There were 19 osteolytic lesions in the pelvis, 4 in the proximal femur, 2 in the proximal tibia, and 1 in the calcaneus. All defects were associated with severe pain or fractures. There were no conversions to open surgery and no infection or bleeding requiring transfusion, embolization, or additional procedures. There was significant improvement in visual analogue scale (VAS) pain score from 8.32 ± 1.70 to 2.36 ± 2.23, combined pain and functional ambulation score from 4.48 ± 2.84 to 7.28 ± 2.76, and Musculoskeletal Tumor Society score from 45% to 68% (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS Ablation, osteoplasty, reinforcement, and internal fixation is a safe and effective minimally invasive percutaneous image-guided treatment option for functional improvement or palliation of painful osteolytic lesions in the pelvis and periarticular loadbearing bones.

Abstract
Vertebral metastases represent an important cause of cancer-related morbidity and mortality. Among all available treatments, interventional percutaneous techniques have recently emerged as potential strategies for the management of oncologic patients with vertebral lesions. Minimally invasive image-guided therapies include “ablative” and “consolidative” ones. According to the number of metastases and the patient's performance status, ablative techniques can be performed with a curative or a palliative purpose since necrosis induced by critic changes of intralesional temperature determines both tumor debulking and destruction of pain receptors. On the other hand, consolidative treatments are based on the injection of polymethylmethacrylate cement to improve structural vertebral integrity and obtain pain alleviation and prevention of skeletal-related events. This article reviews the current recommendations supporting the role of interventional radiology in the management of vertebral metastases, focusing on the last updates in literature.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of microwave (MW) ablation combined with percutaneous osteoplasty (POP) on painful extraspinal bone metastases. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this retrospective study, 50 adult patients with 56 extraspinal bone metastasis lesions, who suffered from refractory moderate to severe pain, were treated with MW ablation and POP. Changes in quality of life were evaluated based on the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), daily morphine consumption, and the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) before and immediately after the procedure and during follow-up times. RESULTS Technical success was achieved in all patients. Mean preoperative VAS score and morphine dose were 7.0 ± 2.6 (range, 3-10) and 66.7 ± 33.2 mg (range, 10-120 mg), respectively. Mean postoperative VAS scores and daily morphine doses were as follows: 1 day, 3.5 ± 2.1 and 36.1 ± 25.8 mg (P < .05); 1 week, 1.5 ± 1.7 and 12.2 ± 14.8 mg (P < .001); 1 month, 0.9 ± 1.4 and 5.7 ± 10.0 mg (P < .001); and 3 months, 0.6 ± 1.2 and 4.7 ± 8.4 mg (P < .001). A significant decrease in the ODI score was also observed (P < .05). Periprocedural death was not observed. A pathologic fracture occurred in 1 (2%) patient with femoral metastasis, and local infection was observed in 2 (4%) patients. Minor cement leakage occurred in 4 (8%) patients with no symptomatic or intra-articular extravasation. No local tumor progression occurred in patients with imaging follow-up. CONCLUSIONS MW ablation combined with POP is an effective and safe treatment for painful extraspinal bone metastases, which can significantly relieve pain and improve quality of life.

Abstract
Metastatic disease involving the pelvis is common, often resulting in significant pain and disability. Several percutaneous interventions for unstable pelvic metastatic disease have been described, including osteoplasty, ablation, and screw fixation, that when used alone or in combination can significantly reduce pain and disability from metastatic bone disease. While it is possible to make a significant impact in patient care with basic principles and techniques, certain advanced techniques can extend the application of percutaneous interventions while minimizing morbidity.

Abstract
PURPOSE To perform a systematic review of technical details and clinical outcomes of percutaneous extra-spinal cementoplasty in patients with malignant lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS PUBMED, MEDLINE, MEDLINE in-process, EMBASE and the Cochrane databases were searched between January 1990 and February 2019 using the keywords «percutaneous cementoplasty», «percutaneous osteoplasty» and «extra-spinal cementoplasty». Inclusion criteria were: retrospective/prospective cohort with more than 4 patients, published in English language, reporting the use of percutaneous injection of cement inside an extra-spinal bone malignant tumour using a dedicated bone trocar, as a stand-alone procedure or in combination with another percutaneous intervention, in order to provide pain palliation and/or bone consolidation. RESULTS Thirty articles involving 652 patients with a total of 761 lesions were reviewed. Mean size of lesion was 45mm (range of mean size among publications: 29-73mm); 489 lesions were located in the pelvis, 262 in the long bones of the limbs and 10 in other locations. Cementoplasty was reported as a stand-alone procedure for 60.1% of lesions, and combined with thermal ablation for 26.2% of lesions, implant devices for 12.3% of lesions, and balloon kyphoplasty for 1.4% of lesions. The mean volume of injected cement was 8.8mL (range of mean volume among publications: 2.7-32.2mL). The preoperative visual analogic scores ranged between 3.2 and 9.5. Postoperative scores at last available follow-up ranged from 0.4 to 5.6. Thirteen papers reported a reduction of the visual analogic scores of 5 points or more. Nerve injury was the most frequent symptomatic leakage (0.6%). CONCLUSION Percutaneous extra-spinal cementopasty is predominantly performed as a stand-alone procedure and for lesions in the bony pelvis. It appears to be an effective tool to manage pain associated with malignant bone tumours. There is however a lack of standardization of the technique among the different publications.

Abstract
We present 2 cases of palliative percutaneous screw fixation for refractory pain from periacetabular residual cavities, after clinical remission, from osteolytic iliac masses involving the cortices of the sacroiliac joint (SIJ). Two patients-1 with a treated 8 cm breast metastasis and another with a treated 14 cm plasmacytoma-were selected for osseous stabilization based on imaging criteria and physical signs of iliac deformability and SIJ dysfunction. Neither lesion exhibited active malignancy following systemic therapy or discrete fracture. Following computed tomography-guided screw fixation across the mass and SIJ, with surrounding cement osteoplasty, to reduce mechanical stress on abnormal bone, both patients reported pain resolution beyond 1-year. This technique may be a suitable palliation even for large treated pelvic metastastic cavities and in the absence of fracture.

Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to assess the safety and technical outcome of computed tomography (CT) fluoroscopy-guided osteoplasty with or without prior percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in patients with painful osteolyses. METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of 29 patients with painful extraspinal and spinal osteolyses (16 women, 13 men; 63.1±14.4 years) who underwent CT fluoroscopy-guided osteoplasty (10-20 mAs tube current) with or without RFA (26 and 14 lesions, respectively), in 33 consecutive procedures from 2002 to 2016. Technical success was defined as at least one complete RFA cycle and subsequent polymethyl metacrylate (PMMA) bone cement injection covering ≥75% of longest diameter of extraspinal osteolysis on axial plane or of distance between vertebral endplates. Procedure-related complications within 30 days and dose-length-product (DLP) were also evaluated. RESULTS Osteolyses were located in the pelvis (acetabulum, n=10; iliac bone, n=4), spine (thoracic, n=6; lumbar, n=5; sacral, n=8), long bones (femur, n=3; tibia, n=1), sternum (n=2) and glenoid (n=1). Mean size of the treated osteolysis was 4.0±1.2 cm (range, 1.9-6.9 cm). Of 40 osteolyses, 31 (77.5%) abutted neighboring risk structures (spinal canal or neuroforamen, n=18; neighboring joint, n=11; other, n=8). Mean number of RFA electrode positions and complete ablation cycles was 1.5±0.9 and 2.1±1.7, respectively. Mean PMMA filling volume was 7.7±5.7 mL (range, 2-30 mL). Small asymptomatic PMMA leakages were observed in 15 lesions (37.5%). Mean total DLP was 850±653 mGy*cm. Six minor complications were observed, without any major complications. CONCLUSION CT fluoroscopy-guided percutaneous osteoplasty with or without concomitant RFA for the treatment of painful extraspinal and spinal osteolyses can be performed with a low complication rate and high technical success.

Abstract
The technical art to percutaneous injection of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) cement for the palliative treatment of osseous metastases is not without pitfalls. Pathologic fracture, cortical bone erosion, large lytic tumor, aggressive tumor biology, and tumor vascularity may increase the risk of cement leakage or limit complete consolidation. A calculated and determined approach is often necessary to achieve satisfactory patient-tailored results. This article reviews the challenges and potential complications during the consolidation of osseous metastases. Case examples are presented to facilitate early detection of impending cement leakage, minimize procedural risks, and provide management suggestions for complications. Technical pearls are provided to refine consolidative techniques and improve the comprehensive treatment of painful osseous metastases.

Abstract
PURPOSE To characterize the response of patients with acetabular metastases following combined cryoablation and cementoplasty (CCC) for pain palliation and fracture risk reduction, based on completeness of ablation and the presence of pre-existing pathologic fracture. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-nine consecutive acetabular CCC procedures were performed in 37 patients (24 M:13F, age 66 ± 8 years). Pain was assessed using a 0-10 numeric rating scale. Development of new or progression of pre-existing fractures and local tumor progression (LTP) were determined on follow-up imaging. Pain score reduction and fracture development rates were compared by ablation completeness and the presence of pre-existing fractures. RESULTS Twenty-three of 27 (85%) patients with evaluable pain scores had reduced pain, decreasing from 7.5 ± 2.1 to 3.6 ± 2.6 (p < 0.0001). Of 39 tumors, 28 (72%) were completely ablated with no significant difference in pain reduction after complete versus incomplete ablations (p = 0.9387). Six of 30 (20%) patients with follow-up imaging demonstrated new/progressive acetabular fractures. Four of 5 (80%) patients with LTP developed new/progressive fractures compared to 2 of 25 (8%) without tumor progression (p = 0.0003). Pre-existing fracture was not associated with subsequent fracture/fracture progression (p = 0.2986). However, patients with prior acetabular radiation therapy or surgery had increased fractures following treatment (p = 0.0380). CONCLUSION Complete acetabular tumor ablation during CCC was not associated with superior pain relief compared to subtotal ablation but did result in improved fracture stabilization. Pre-treatment pathologic fractures were not associated with fracture progression, but new/progressive fractures were more frequent in patients with prior radiation therapy or surgery.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT Percutaneous thermal ablation, including microwave ablation (MWA), radiofrequency ablation (RFA), and cryoablation, is a well-established focal treatment option for primary and metastatic malignancies. While published literature specific to ablation of sarcomas is relatively lacking compared with non-sarcomatous malignancies, what is available is promising. In situations where a focal treatment option is desired, strong consideration should be given to percutaneous thermal ablation, in addition to surgery and radiation therapy. A significant advantage of percutaneous thermal ablation over surgery and radiation includes the repeatability of ablation, as there is no absolute limit on the number of times an ablation can be performed. Compared with surgery, ablation offers the potential of decreased recovery time, a less invasive procedure, and is often performed in patients deemed not medically fit for surgery.

Abstract
Metastatic disease involving the spine and pelvis is common, often resulting in significant pain and disability. Several percutaneous interventions have been described, including osteoplasty, ablation, and screw fixation, that when used alone or in combination can significantly reduce pain and disability from metastatic bone disease. Although it is possible to make a significant impact in patient care with basic principles and techniques, certain advanced techniques can extend the application of percutaneous interventions while minimizing morbidity.

Abstract
Interventional approaches to musculoskeletal tumours have significantly changed over the last several years, and new treatments continue to be developed. All ablative modalities are currently applied to the treatment of bone tumours, including radiofrequency, cryo-, microwave, and laser ablation devices. Indications for ablation of bone and soft-tissue tumours have expanded beyond palliation of painful bone metastases and eradication of osteoid osteomas to the local control of oligometastatic disease from a number of primary tumours and ablation of desmoid tumours. In addition, tools for consolidation of bone tumours at risk of pathological fracture have also expanded. With these developments, ablation has become the primary treatment for osteoid osteomas and, at some institutions, desmoid tumours. It may be the primary or secondary treatment for palliation of painful bone tumours, frequently used in patients with pain refractory to or recurrent after radiation therapy. It is used as a treatment for limited metastatic disease or for metastases that grow disproportionately in patients with multifocal metastases, either in combination with systemic therapy or to reserve systemic therapy and its toxicity for more widespread disease progression. Moreover, percutaneous methods to consolidate bone at risk of fracture have become more commonplace, aided by techniques using materials beyond typical bone cement.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this article is to review the current guidelines and recommendations for percutaneous image-guided treatment of musculoskeletal tumors. CONCLUSION With the ongoing technologic advances, it is essential that the musculoskeletal interventionalist is familiar with the current tools and techniques available for the treatment of soft-tissue and bone tumors. Fortunately, many of these tools are readily available in a standard interventional radiology department and can be easily applied to the musculoskeletal system.

Percutaneous CT and Fluoroscopy-Guided Screw Fixation of Pathological Fractures in the Shoulder Girdle: Technical Report of 3 Cases. Cardiovasc Intervent Radiol 2016; 39:1332-8.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To review our initial experience with percutaneous CT and fluoroscopy-guided screw fixation of pathological shoulder-girdle fractures. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between May 2014 and June 2015, three consecutive oncologic patients (mean age 65 years; range 57-75 years) with symptomatic pathological shoulder-girdle fractures unsuitable for surgery and radiotherapy underwent percutaneous image-guided screw fixation. Fractures occurred through metastases (n = 2) or a post-ablation cavity (n = 1). Mechanical properties of osteosynthesis were adjudged superior to stand-alone cementoplasty in each case. Cannulated screws were placed under combined CT and fluoroscopic guidance with complementary radiofrequency ablation or cementoplasty to optimise local palliation and secure screw fixation, respectively, in two cases. Follow-up was undertaken every few weeks until mortality or most recent appointment. RESULTS Four pathological fractures were treated in three patients (2 acromion, 1 clavicular, 1 coracoid). Mean size of associated lesion was 2.6 cm (range 1-4.5 cm). Technical success was achieved in all cases (100 %), without complications. Good palliation and restoration of mobility were observed in two cases at 2-3 months; one case could not be followed due to early post-procedural oncologic mortality. CONCLUSION Percutaneous image-guided shoulder-girdle osteosynthesis appears technically feasible with good short-term efficacy in this complex patient subset. Further studies are warranted to confirm these promising initial results.
