"We've cured you, what more could you want?" This query is sometimes posed to cancer survivors by those health professionals who view cancer exclusively as a medical problem. Although this perspective may be the natural consequence of modern medical training, the very training necessary to build upon significant gains in the prevention and treatment of cancer, the clinician's view of the "patient" is often too restricted to recognize the holistic impact of cancer. This article will focus on the medical/physical, psychosocial, and economic/legal issues of concern to cancer survivors.
“我们已经治愈了你，你还想要什么？” 那些将癌症仅仅视为医学问题的医疗专业人员有时会向癌症幸存者提出这个问题。尽管这种观点可能是现代医学培训的自然结果，而这种培训对于在癌症预防和治疗方面取得重大进展是必要的，但临床医生对 “患者” 的看法往往过于局限，无法认识到癌症的整体影响。本文将重点关注癌症幸存者关心的医学/身体、心理社会和经济/法律问题。
