Abstract

The most commonly diagnosed tumor in the skeleton represents metastatic disease. Metastatic carcinoma should be the first consideration in older patients with atypical radiologic findings or clinical features suggestive of a bone lesion. The primary goal in the setting of skeletal metastasis is usually palliation.
