With bone metastases found to develop in more than half of patients with advanced cancers, this remarkable reference sheds much-needed light on the relation of various cancers-particularly breast and prostate cancer and multiple myeloma-to bone morbidity.

Written by more than 40 international experts in the field, Tumor Bone Diseases and Osteoporosis in Cancer Patients · reviews the basics of bone physiology · investigates the propensity of breast cancer cells to metastasize in bone due primarily to the abundance of growth factors in the skeletal microenvironment-strongly supporting the seed-and-soil hypothesis of the metastatic process · discusses the efficacy of local radiotherapy and radioactive isotopes in treating bone metastases · covers endocrine and chemotherapy trials on patients with bone metastases · explores osteoclast activation and direct osteolytic effects of metastatic cancer cells · evaluates the noncytotoxic treatments of bisphosphonates as potent inhibitors of osteoclast-mediated bone resorption · assesses bisphosphonates as agents for ameliorating pain and preventing metastases in cancer patients · describes preventive therapy against osteoporosis · and more!
