A review of 158 cases of metastatic extradural spinal cord compression referred to three radiotherapy departments shows that the median survival time is less than 3 months, that recovery of motor and sphincter function is uncommon, and that low fraction (2-5) regimens have a similar clinical outcome to more protracted regimens.
对转诊至三个放疗科的158例转移性硬膜外脊髓压迫病例的回顾显示，中位生存时间少于3个月，运动和括约肌功能恢复并不常见，低分割（2 - 5次）方案与更延长疗程的方案临床结果相似。
