Three groups of patients (n: 10 each group) with extensive or massive secondary lymphedema of the arm were treated with different types of manual lymphatic drainage. The decrease of volume based on arm circumference was measured before and four weeks after treatment. The first group received one hour of manual lymph drainage twice a day ("Asdonk-standard"). The second group received a 90 minute and the third group only a single one hour treatment. Our result indicate that the therapeutic efficacy of the "Asdonk-standard" is superior to the other two forms of therapy. The improvement of lymphedema was much superior in this group and the treatment was more cost effective.
三组患有广泛性或重度手臂继发性淋巴水肿的患者（每组n = 10）接受了不同类型的手法淋巴引流治疗。在治疗前及治疗四周后测量基于手臂周长的体积减少情况。第一组每天接受两次一小时的手法淋巴引流（“阿斯东克标准疗法”）。第二组接受90分钟治疗，第三组仅接受单次一小时治疗。我们的结果表明，“阿斯东克标准疗法”的治疗效果优于其他两种治疗方式。该组淋巴水肿的改善情况要优越得多，且治疗更具成本效益。
