There is no single set treatment for bone metastases. Treatment depends on type of cancer, extent of the spread of metastases, prior treatment and other factors. Only a physician who is very familiar with the person's medical details can know what the best treatment is. See Cancer Pain and Palliative Care in Guide to Internet Resources for Cancer. If you are a patient or parent of a child with bone cancer your medical team should be able to provide you with the information which is most relevant to you.
