Objective: to deepen the knowledge about the management of patients suffering from bone metastasis from a point of view of the Orthopedics and Traumatology specialties. Methods: a search of information was carried out in a period of three months (January 1st, 2018 to March 31st, 2018) in the databases PubMed, Hinari, SciELO and Medline through the information locator EndNote by using the words bone metastasis, pathologic fracture, and metastatic bone disease, resulting in a total of 259 articles which 50 of them were selected for the review, 41 of them of the last five years, including ten books.
