Fig. 19From: A practical guide for planning pelvic bone percutaneous interventions (biopsy, tumour ablation and cementoplasty)A 66-year-old woman presenting with a painful superior pubic ramus lung carcinoma metastasis. A thermal ablation and cementoplasty was performed for pain control and bone support. a An approach through the pubic symphysis and superior pubic ramus (dashed line) was chosen because the femoral vessels and nerve prevented direct access. b AP fluoroscopy image shows the radiofrequency ablation electrode inserted coaxially within the lesion. c AP fluoroscopy image shows the cementoplasty performed through the coaxial needleBack to article page
