A further 27 patients, who underwent conventional closed IM nailing, served as controls. Pain was assessed using a visual analogue scale (VAS) score pre-operatively (pre-operative VAS), one week post-operatively (immediate post-operative VAS), and at six weeks post-operatively (follow-up post-operative VAS). Progression of the tumour was evaluated in subgroups of patients using F-18-fludeoxyglucose (F-18-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)\/computed tomography (CT) and\/or bone scintigraphy (BS), at a mean of 8.8 and 7.2 months post-operatively, respectively.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The mean pain scores of patients who underwent closed nailing with cement augmentation were significantly lower than those of the control patients post-operatively (immediate post-operative VAS: 3.8, sd 0.9 versus 6.0, sd 0.9; follow-up post-operative VAS: 3.3, sd 2.5 versus 6.6, sd 2.2; all p &lt; 0.001). The progression of the metastasis was suppressed in 50% (10\/20) of patients who underwent closed nailing with augmentation, but in only 8% (1\/13) of those in the control group.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Percutaneous cement augmentation of closed IM nailing improves the relief of pain and limits the progression of the tumour in patients with metastases to the long bones. Take home message: Percutaneous cement augmentation while performing closed IM nailing has some advantages for long bone metastases.
