Popis:	The management of metastatic lesions in the region of the hip has become a more frequent orthopedic problem in recent years. This increase is due to prolonged survival of patients with malignant disease and reflects advances made in the oncological treatment of these patients. Classically, the orthopedic objectives when treating secondary neoplastic deposits to the hip are the alleviation of pain and the preservation of function.
