The paper concerns the issues of medical ethics and deontology in communication of a physician with cancer patients and their relatives. Ethic and deontological norms dictate the necessity to approach each patient individually, especially in terms of giving information about the disease. While informing the patient truly about his/her disease, it is important to keep the patient hoping and focus his/her efforts on radical treatment if the disease is not too advanced. If it is so, the patients need individual and group psychotherapy which is able to improve quality of life and to prolong the survival in cancer patients.
本文关注医生与癌症患者及其亲属沟通中的医学伦理和道义问题。伦理和道义规范规定了对每位患者进行个体化治疗的必要性，尤其是在提供疾病信息方面。在向患者如实告知其疾病情况时，如果疾病不太严重，重要的是让患者保持希望并将其努力集中在根治性治疗上。如果病情严重，患者则需要个体和团体心理治疗，这能够提高癌症患者的生活质量并延长其生存期。
