Abstract
Bone metastases are common in advanced solid tumors and often require local control strategies in addition to systemic therapy. Although thermal ablation is an established method for selected lesions, its use may be limited in anatomically complex or heat-sensitive locations. Irreversible electroporation, a non-thermal ablative technique widely used in visceral oncology, has not yet been reported for the treatment of bone metastases.
