Elective Surgical Care Pathways Are Associated With Lower Fracture Rates at Presentation and Contribute to Superior Clinical Outcomes in Metastatic Bone Disease

Key Points

• The aim is to evaluate how elective surgical care pathways affect fracture rates and clinical outcomes in metastatic bone disease.
• Analysis of surgical pathways for metastatic bone disease
• Comparison of clinical outcomes between elective and emergent surgical interventions
• Elective surgery is linked to significantly lower fracture rates at presentation.
• Patients receiving elective surgery demonstrate superior clinical outcomes compared to those needing emergency procedures.
