Kyphoplasty in the Early Oncologic Diagnosis and Treatment of Vertebral Fractures: A Clinical Study.

CONCLUSION: Bone biopsy should be performed to diagnose early spinal metastases. Although an accurate bone biopsy may not be obtained from some patients, particularly from those with osteoporosis, performing bone biopsy during the procedure does not cause time loss or any other complications and protects the surgeon from possible medicolegal problems.
