ABSTRACT
Background: Metastatic bone disease should be considered as a public health problem. The alterations it may cause include pain that is refractory to medical treatment, metabolic instability, pathologic fractures and spinal disorders.
Material and methods: The primary tumor site that led to the need for surgery was investigated in a series of patients with a diagnosis of metastatic bone disease. The bone involved and the histology of the lesions were also studied.
Results: Kidney cancer was the one that most frequently required a surgical procedure; it was followed by breast and prostate cancer. The primary tumor was not found in 6.36% of cases. The bones affected by the lesions studied were as follows in order of occurrence: femur, spine, humerus and pelvis. Adenocarcinoma was the most frequent histological diagnosis.
Discussion: The diagnosis of metastatic bone disease should always be considered in patients over forty years of age with skeletal lesions, preferably lytic.
Conclusions: In this study, kidney cancer, the proximal limbs and adenocarcinomas were the variables that most frequently produced metastatic bone lesions that warranted a surgical procedure.
