Description

This text covers the concepts of the pathophysiology of secondary bone cancer. It deals with interactions between cancer cells and the unique microenvironment in bone, emphasizing the influence of the latter on cancer cell adhesion and growth. Later sections cover the mechanisms of tumour-mediated osteolysis, animal models and implications of the pathophysiology for therapy.
