Abstract
Bone metastases in patients with prostate cancer are common. Prostate cancer patients also have a relatively long survival. Palliative radiation can provide effective symptom control in many clinical settings. This article focuses on the management of bone pain and its complications (pathological fractures and spinal cord compression) with radiation treatment.
摘要
前列腺癌患者发生骨转移很常见。前列腺癌患者的生存期也相对较长。在许多临床情况下，姑息性放疗可有效控制症状。本文重点探讨放射治疗对骨痛及其并发症（病理性骨折和脊髓压迫）的处理。
