The occurrence of a bone metastasis marks a turning point in the evolution of a cancer patient. Except for a very particular primary cancer, the chances of definitive cure have practically disappeared and the treatment is therefore essentially oriented towards the patient's quality of life. This highlights the need for close medical and paramedical collaboration, each of the specialists being at the service of the other to increase the effectiveness of the treatment and limit its heaviness for the patient as much as possible. We mainly detail the surgical strategies and combinations of techniques likely to meet the patient's needs, without going back over the basic techniques, but specifying the specificities of the gestures according to the location of the damage.
