@chandlerbas is this pneumonic in order of most common to least common, as in is prostate cancer the most common cause of metastasis to the bone regardless of wether the patient presents with osteoclastic or osteoblastic lesions?

One addition: Breast cancer causes mixed metastases, whereas lung cancer causes either lytic or blastic depending on the cancer type. Small Cell Lung Cancer causes blastic lesions and Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer causes lytic lesions.

Osteoblastic lesions are associated with prostatic adenocarcinoma mets.
Most other cancer mets to the bone are osteolytic lesions.
