Bone\r\nmetastases very often develop from malignant   tumors and lead\r\nto complications which considerably diminish the quality    of\r\nlife of the patient. Bone pain, pathological fractures,                  and\r\nhypercalcemic syndrome should be recognized and treated ear-\r\nly, so as to prevent any further morbidity and immobilizati-\r\non. Antiosteolytic    substances such as biophosphonate can\r\nsupplement the established palliative and supportive thera-\r\npies.\r\nHighly qualified basic researchers and      clinicians in\r\npathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of metastatic       bone\r\ndisease have contributed to this book, providing a good\r\noverview ofpresent knowledge and research. The book will be\r\nof interest not only to    specialists, but also to any physi-\r\ncian interested in oncology.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e23 December 1993\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer Berlin Heidelberg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9783540573562\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePaperback \/ softback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e186\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Springer Berlin Heidelberg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51217355374732,"sku":"9783540573562","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783540573562.jpg?v=1783015900","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783540573562","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
