The role of prostate-specific antigen in the osteoblastic bone metastasis of prostate cancer: a literature review [PDF]
Prostate cancer is the only human malignancy that generates predominantly osteoblastic bone metastases, and osteoblastic bone metastases account for more than 90% of osseous metastases of prostate cancer.

A case of lung cancer with osteoblastic metastasis diagnosed with visual impairment
Bone metastasis is relatively common in patients with lung cancers. Although there are some reports of osteolytic skull base metastasis in lung cancer, osteoblastic skull base metastasis is quite rare.
