Preoperative embolization of hypervascular bone metastasis is an effective measure for reducing blood loss during open orthopedic surgery. When the clinician is experienced with the procedure, the risks of the procedure are minimal and final outcomes are typically good. In this study, we report a case of a 50-year-old female patient who presented with a delayed metastatic renal cell tumor in the left proximal femur one year after radical nephrectomy. The patient underwent an effective preoperative embolization, which resulted in a remarkable absence of bleeding and a successful response subsequent to surgical fixation.
