Abstract
Objective
Interventional radiology procedures can offer locoregional tumor control and palliative options for patients with metastatic disease to spine to relieve pain, to delay neurologic deficits, and to improve quality of life and daily function.
Findings
Multiple thermal energies for percutaneous ablation of metastases to the spine exist and are chosen according to tumor characteristics, volume, and location. Vertebral augmentation is most often combined with ablation for structural stability. Intravascular embolization of metastases provides tumor palliative or presurgical devascularization.
Conclusion
Ablation, vertebral augmentation, and intravascular embolization are efficacious minimally invasive options for the management of spinal tumors.
期刊介绍：
Seminars in Spine Surgery is a continuing source of current, clinical information for practicing surgeons. Under the direction of a specially selected guest editor, each issue addresses a single topic in the management and care of patients. Topics covered in each issue include basic anatomy, pathophysiology, clinical presentation, management options and follow-up of the condition under consideration. The journal also features "Spinescope," a special section providing summaries of articles from other journals that are of relevance to the understanding of ongoing research related to the treatment of spinal disorders.
