Abstract

Vertebral augmentation has emerged as a crucial intervention for cancer patients suffering from vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) due to metastatic spinal tumors. These fractures significantly compromise patients' quality of life and exacerbate pain, leading to increased morbidity and decreased functional status. This comprehensive review explores the efficacy, safety, and outcomes of vertebral augmentation techniques, including vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty, in cancer patients. It examines the underlying pathophysiology of VCFs in cancer, patient selection criteria, procedural techniques, complications, and future directions in research and clinical practice. The review emphasizes the importance of a multidisciplinary approach involving oncologists, interventional radiologists, and pain management specialists to optimize patient outcomes and improve overall well-being.

期刊介绍: BJR is the international research journal of the British Institute of Radiology and is the oldest scientific journal in the field of radiology and related sciences. Dating back to 1896, BJR’s history is radiology’s history, and the journal has featured some landmark papers such as the first description of Computed Tomography "Computerized transverse axial tomography" by Godfrey Hounsfield in 1973. A valuable historical resource, the complete BJR archive has been digitized from 1896.
