Résumé
Percutaneous image-guided cementoplasty is a medical procedure for strengthening bones structurally altered by disease, such as osteolytic metastasis. This procedure involves injecting biocompatible liquid bone cement, through one or more trocars into the damaged bone. Within a few minutes the bone cement hardens and restores the rigidity of the bony structure. The introduction of this technique in the case of large cancellous bones, such as the pelvis, raises some practical issues such as: how to manage the flow of cement with variable viscosity over time and how to inject a large amount of cement under fluoroscopy to effectively restore the patient's ability to bear weight?
