Abstract
Background Although percutaneous osteoplasty (POP) has been widely accepted and is now being performed for the treatment of painful bone metastases outside the spine. It is emerging as one of the most promising procedures for patients with painful bone metastasis who are unsuitable for surgery or who show resistance to radiotherapy and/or analgesic therapies. However, there are only scarce reports regarding osteoplasty in painful sternal metastases. Subjects and Method We report four patients with sternal metastases suffered with severe pain of anterior chest wall. The original tumors included lung cancer and thyroid cancer. For the initially pain medication failing, all the four patients received POP procedure under fluoroscopic and cone-beam CT (CBCT) guidance, and obtained satisfying resolution of painful symptoms at 6-month postop follow-up. Conclusion POP is a safe and effective treatment for pain caused by metastatic bone tumors in the sternum. In practice, however, percutaneous puncture of pathologic sternal fractures can be a challenge because of the long flat contour and the defacement by lytic tumor of bony landmarks. We find that the use of fluoroscopic and CBCT can facilitate POP for flat bone fractures with displacing the trajectory planning, needle advancement, and cement delivery in time.

Abstract
Management of musculoskeletal (MSK) tumours has traditionally been delivered by surgeons and medical oncologists. However, in recent years, image-guided interventional oncology (IO) has significantly impacted the clinical management of MSK tumours. With the rapid evolution of relevant technologies and the expanding range of clinical indications, it is likely that the impact of IO will significantly grow and further evolve in the near future.In this narrative review, we describe well-established and new interventional technologies that are currently integrating into the IO armamentarium available to radiologists to treat MSK tumours and illustrate new emerging IO indications for treatment.

Koirala N, McLennan G. Percutaneous reinforced osteoplasty for long bone metastases: a feasibility study. Skeletal Radiol 2020; 49:375-382. [PMID: 31377837 DOI: 10.1007/s00256-019-03288-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2019] [Revised: 07/03/2019] [Accepted: 07/22/2019] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE While percutaneous osteoplasty is common for the treatment of vertebral fractures, low strength of fixation remains a major challenge for use in metastatic weight-bearing bones. With stent, wire, and cement augmentation, this study explores the feasibility of percutaneous reinforced osteoplasty for use in correcting long bone fractures. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifteen explanted swine femora were randomly assigned into three groups. Group 1 (n = 5) was native (intact) bones without any intervention (control), group 2 (n = 5) received cementoplasty, and group 3 (n = 5) received stent and wire scaffolding ("rebar") in addition to cementoplasty. All treatment procedures were performed under fluoroscopic guidance. Mechanical strength of fracture fixation was quantified by peak load to failure, stiffness, work done to fracture, and fatigue testing with four-point bend test. RESULTS Percutaneous osteoplasty with or without reinforcement was successfully achieved in all specimens. The respective peak load at failure, flexural stiffness, and work done to fracture (mean ± SEM) for group 1 was 2245 ± 168 N, 14.77 ± 1.3 Nm/degree, and 4854 ± 541 Nmm; group 2 was 468 ± 81 N, 3.9 ± 0.5 Nm/degree, and 401 ± 56 Nmm; and group 3 was 594 ± 90 N, 4.42 ± 0.4 Nm/degree, and 522 ± 54 Nmm. The mean cyclic displacement for groups 1, 2, and 3 were 0.15, 0.58, and 0.48 mm, respectively, at 220-240 N loading. CONCLUSIONS While percutaneous reinforced osteoplasty with stent, wire, and cement augmentation resulted in improved mechanical strength in restored bones, it did not differ significantly from specimens that underwent exclusive cementoplasty. With the improvement of fracture strength, the concept may be applicable for prevention or treatment of pathological fractures.

Mathematical modelling of the role of Endo180 network in the development of metastatic bone disease in prostate cancer. Comput Biol Med 2020; 117:103619. [PMID: 32072971 DOI: 10.1016/j.compbiomed.2020.103619] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2019] [Revised: 01/11/2020] [Accepted: 01/11/2020] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
Metastatic bone disease (MBD) is a common complication of advanced cancer and recent research suggests that Endo180 expression is dysregulated through the TGFβ-TGFβR-SMAD2/3 signalling pathway during the invasion of tumour cells in the development of MBD. We here provide a model for the dysregulation of the Endo180 network to demonstrate its vital contribution to bone destruction as well as tumour cell growth. The model consisted of a set of ordinary differential equations and reconstructed variations in the bone cells, resultant bone volume, and biochemical factors involved in the TGFβ-TGFβR-SMAD2/3 signalling pathway over time. The model also investigated the underlying mechanism in which the change of TGFβ affects the TGFβ-TGFβR-SMAD2/3 signalling pathway and the resultant Endo180 expression in osteoblastic and tumour cells. The model links the appearance of tumour cells with the inhibition of TGFβ binding to its receptors on osteoblastic cells, to affect TGFβ-TGFβR-SMAD2/3 signalling and Endo180 expression. Temporal variation in bone cells, bone volume, and the biochemical factors involved in the TGFβ-TGFβR-SMAD2/3 pathway as demonstrated in the model simulations agree with published experimental data. The model can be refined based on further discoveries but allows the influence of Endo180 network dysregulation on bone remodelling in MBD to be established. This model could aid in the development of Endo180 targeted therapies for MBD in the future.

Abstract
Background The purpose of this study was to review recent research related to the analgesic effect of ablation therapy combined with cementoplasty, as well as to identify the duration of analgesic effect and risk for cement leaks. Methods A systematic literature search using PubMed, Web of Science, and annual meeting proceedings of the oncology society and other organizations were conducted. Results Twelve retrospective studies met the inclusion criteria. Four of the studies included in the review assessed the changes immediately after treatment. Five studies were subjected to analyses of analgesic effect of combined percutaneous thermal ablation and Cementoplasty at 24 weeks after treatment. Incidences of leakage of bone cement during surgery were detected in 4 out of 12 studies. The change of mean pain scores at 1 days, at 1 week, and at 4 weeks, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks after treatment were -3.90 (95% CI: -4.80 to -3.00), -4.55 (95% CI:-5.46 to -3.64), -4.78 (95% CI: -5.70 to -3.86), -5.16 (95% CI: -6.39 to -3.92), and -5.91 (95% CI: -6.63 to -5.19). The relative risk of cement leakage was 0.10 (95% CI: -6.63 to -5.19). Conclusions Our systematic review suggested that thermal ablation combined with cementoplasty could be a safe and effective intervention for the management of bone metastases-induced pain.

Abstract
In addition to being a major source of cancer-related pain, metastatic osseous lesions are frequently at risk for pathologic fracture and its accompanying morbidity. While bony metastases are commonly thought of as occurring within the vertebral column, over 80% are found outside the spine. Percutaneous interventional treatment options for nonspinal metastases offer a broad array of minimally invasive, image-guided procedures that are rapidly effective, reduce the need for opioids, and often work in complementary fashion with adjunct treatments in radiation oncology, orthopaedic surgery, and/or medical oncology. This article presents an approach to assess extraspinal metastases, reviews available interventional techniques in use today, and offers example cases as an introductory primer to the thought process used for selecting the appropriate interventional treatment.

Biomechanical effects of osteoplasty with or without Kirschner wire augmentation on long bone diaphyses undergoing bending stress: implications for percutaneous imaging-guided consolidation in cancer patients.

Abstract
Background Osteoplasty has been discouraged in long bones. However, despite a substantial lack of pre-clinical biomechanical tests, multiple clinical studies have implemented a wide range of techniques to optimise long bone osteoplasty. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the biomechanical properties of osteoplasty alone and in combination with Kirschner wires (K-wires) in a cadaveric human diaphyseal model undergoing 3-point bending stress. Methods Thirty unpaired human cadaveric hemi-tibia specimens were randomly assigned to receive no consolidation (group 1, n = 10), osteoplasty alone (group 2, n = 10), or K-wires augmented osteoplasty (group 3, n = 10). Specimens were tested on a dedicated servo-hydraulic machine using a 3-point bending test. Fracture load was calculated for each specimen; two-sample Wilcoxon rank-sum tests were used to assess differences between groups. Results Median volume of polymethyl methacrylate injected was 18 mL for group 2 (25th–50th percentile 15–21 mL) and 19 mL for group 3 (25th–50th percentile 17–21). There were no significant differences in fracture load between groups 1 and 2 (z = − 0.793; p = 0.430), between groups 1 and 3 (z = − 0.944; p = 0.347), and between groups 2 and 3 (z = − 0.454; p = 0.650). Fractures through the cement occurred in 4 of 30 cases (13.3%); there were no K-wires fractures. Conclusions Osteoplasty with or without K-wires augmentation does not improve the resistance of diaphyseal bone to bending stresses.

Abstract
As an extension of percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP), percutaneous osteoplasty (POP) refers broadly to percutaneous bone cement injected into various parts of the body and narrowly to cement injected into extraspinal bone lesions. POP mainly includes such surgeries as percutaneous sacroplasty, percutaneous acetabuloplasty, percutaneous femoral osteoplasty, and percutaneous iliac osteoplasty (Figure 1). Currently, POP is a positive and an effective treatment for extraspinal bone lesions in that it can rapidly relieve pain, effectively prevent pathological fractures, and partially inactivate tumors, with few complications. The aim of this review is to detail the POP techniques and report their safety and efficacy in the treatment of extraspinal metastases.

Abstract
Objective To explore the application of intramedullary nail fixation combined with auxiliary plate and bone cement in the palliative treatment of pathologic fracture of extremities caused by metastatic tumors. Methods Clinical data of 11 cases with pathologic fracture of extremities caused by metastatic tumors between April 2015 and October 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. All the patients were treated by intramedullary nail fixation combined with auxiliary plate and bone cement. There were 6 males and 5 females with an age of 54-72 years (mean, 62.9 years). The disease duration was 1.0-1.5 months. Of the 11 patients, 4 metastatic tumors were diagnosed at humerus, 6 at femur, and 1 at tibia, respectively. And the tumor infiltration length ranged from 3.3 to 5.6 cm (mean, 4.6 cm), the depth could reach the bilayer of limb bones. All the patients had suffered the limbs pain and incapability of physical movement. The preoperative visual analogue scale (VAS) score was 6.36±1.03, and the Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) score was 42.73±10.09. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and postoperative complications were recorded. The VAS score, KPS score, and Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) score were used to evaluate the effectiveness at 3 months after operation. Results The operation time was 1.1-1.8 hours (mean, 1.5 hours), the intraoperative blood loss was 102.5-211.3 mL (mean, 135.6 mL). Postoperative limb incisions healed well without infection, necrosis, and delayed healing or other complications. All the patients were followed up 7-10 months (mean, 8.2 months). At 3 months after operation, the functions of limbs recovered. The VAS score decreased to 0.82±0.75 and the KPS score increased to 85.45±5.22, both showing significant difference when compared with preoperative ones ( t=35.218, P=0.000; t=-18.470, P=0.000); and the MSTS score was 23.91±2.47. At last follow-up, the anteroposterior and lateral X-ray films showed that all the limbs healing well and no breakage of intramedullary nail and steel plate, or loosening in bone cement, limb shortening, malalignment, or other complications occurred. Conclusion In treating metastatic tumors of extremities, the combination of intramedullary nail fixation with auxiliary plate and bone cement will contribute to an invariable length and fixed location for limbs, resulting in biomechanical stability for skeleton. Under this premise, the tumor lesions can be eliminated and pathological pains be relieved, so as to improve patients' life quality.

Abstract
According to the literature, prophylactic consolidation of lytic metastasis located in the proximal femur is recommended when the Mirels' score is above 8. Osteoplasty alone provides inadequate consolidation but various devices have been used in association for better consolidation. The aim of this review is to detail the augmented osteoplasty techniques published in the literature and to report their safeties and their efficacies to prevent pathological fracture of the proximal femur. A Pubmed research found 5 studies that evaluated augmented osteoplasty of the proximal femur in cancer patients. All devices demonstrate adequate safety and low rate of secondary pathological fractures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In long bones, cementoplasty alone does not provide sufficient stability, which may cause secondary fractures. This study reviewed the safety and efficacy of reinforced cementoplasty (RC) (percutaneous internal fixation using dedicated spindles combined with cementoplasty) for unstable malignant lesions of the cervicotrochanteric region (CTR) of the proximal femur. METHODS Eighteen consecutive patients (nine women [50%] and nine men [50%]; mean age 55.1 ± 16.2 years; range 22-85) underwent RC for 19 unstable lesions of the CTR (16/19 [84.2%] bone metastases, 3/19 [15.8%] multiple myeloma lesions). All the patients were considered unsuitable for surgery. Clinical outcome was judged with a mean follow-up of 8.8 ± 7.2 months (range 1-27). The primary endpoints were occurrence of secondary fractures during the follow-up period and local pain relief measured by a visual analogue scale (VAS). RESULTS No secondary fracture occurred. Mean VAS improved from 5.9 ± 3.1 (range 0-10) to 2.3 ± 2.4 (range 0-7) at 1 month (p = 0.001) to 1.6 ± 1.7 (range 0-5) at final follow-up (p = 0.0002). One symptomatic cement pulmonary embolism was recorded. CONCLUSION RC is an original minimally invasive technique providing pain relief and effective bone stability for unstable malignant lesions of the cervicotrochanteric region in patients unsuitable for open surgery. KEY POINTS • Reinforced cementoplasty (RC) combines intralesional spindling with cementoplasty. • RC provides effective bone stability and pain relief. • RC is a suitable minimally invasive option for patients in poor general condition.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate low-pressure bone stenting combined with cementoplasty in extensive lytic lesions. METHODS A single-centre study involving four consecutive patients (four women) with extensive lytic tumours was performed. The average age was 65 years. Surgical treatment was not indicated or not wished for by the patients. Institutional review board approval and informed consent were obtained. Percutaneous consolidation was performed by an interventional radiologist under fluoroscopy guidance. Follow-up was assessed using the visual analogue scale (VAS). RESULTS Under general (n = 2) or local (n = 2) anaesthesia, five 11-gauge bone biopsy needles were advanced in four lesions. Five auto-expandable uncovered stents (10-14 mm diameter and 40-60 mm long) were inserted. In all cases, bone cement was successfully placed into the tumours. The volume of cement that was injected through the cannulas into the stents was 5-10 mL. Using VAS, pain decreased from more than 9/10 preoperatively to less than 2/10 after the procedure for all patients (p < 0.05). No complications occurred during the follow-up (8-19 months). CONCLUSION This study suggests that cementoplasty combined with low-pressure bone stenting could allow effective bone stabilization resulting in pain relief. KEY POINTS • Low-pressure bone stenting is possible. • This technique improves cement injection control. • The procedure allows effective bone stabilization resulting in pain relief.

Abstract
Percutaneous cementoplasty has been shown to immediately restore the mechanical stability of affected bones, prevent further risk of bone fractures, and allow immediate weight bearing. It is emerging as one of the most promising procedures for patients with painful bone metastasis who are unsuitable for surgery or who show resistance to radiotherapy and/or analgesic therapies. This study aimed at describing the procedure, indications, and benefits of percutaneous cementoplasty for painful osteolytic distal femur metastases. We report the case of a painful metastatic lesion in the left distal femur secondary to non-small-cell lung cancer in a 58-year-old woman. The patient underwent percutaneous cementoplasty and experienced effective pain relief and recovery of knee function postoperatively. In addition, no perioperative complication was observed. Percutaneous cementoplasty for osteolytic distal femur metastases offers effective pain relief and restores impaired knee function. Although this method may be a safe option, larger samples of retrospective or prospective confirmation are warranted.
