Abstract
VALENCIA-ANGUITA, J.; JULIA-NARVAEZ, M.; RODRIGUEZ-BURGOS, F. and PONCE DE LEON, A.. Percutaneous sacroplasty for relieving pain caused by sacral metastases. Neurocirugía [online]. 2007, vol.18, n.3, pp.247-249. ISSN 1130-1473.
Percutaneous injection of polymethyl-metacrylate is an increasingly popular treatment for spine metastatic tumors. We present a case of sacral breast carcinoma treated successfully by percutaneous sacroplasty with injection of bone cement, resulting in pain relief.
