Abstract

Metastases from genitourinary tumors frequently involve the skeletal system and often produce the most disabling symptoms. Judicious early orthopedic management may prevent paralysis and maintain ambulation, thus significantly improving the quality of life. The role of prophylactic surgery for impending fractures and the symptomatic therapy of painful metastatic foci are discussed.
