「Can I be Cured？」這是癌症病人最常提出的問題。 在中文語境中，它會以不同形式出現：「有得醫嗎？」「可以治癒嗎？」「醫生，我會很快死嗎？」患者都希望醫生即時給予決斷性答案。 早前受邀至里斯本著名的Champalimaud Clinical Centre發表主題演講，題目極具挑戰性：「治癒肺癌：現況與未來」（Cure of Lung Cancer : Present and Future），當然不可能把四十分鐘的演說濃縮成五百字，只談：「Cure」為何物。 根據字源學，Cure源自拉丁文Cura，意指「關懷」（Care），直至中世紀英語才採納Cure這詞，當年意思是「恢復健康」（Restore health to normal state），但要知道中世紀人類並未知道癌症為何物，所謂「Cancer Cure」（癌症治癒）的現代概念，是後來醫學發展的產物。 在病人眼中，Cure往往被簡化為：治療後所有的掃描與驗血都找不到腫瘤。然而，這是最普遍、也最易被誤解的定義。任何一位腫瘤科醫生都清楚知道，現今科技尚無法偵測肉眼看不見的微量癌細胞，掃描結果「一切正常」並不等同於治癒，因為這定義缺乏了「時間性」。若要包括時間維度，便惟有靠統計學，一般會採用Kaplan-Meier Survival Curve（存活曲綫）來估算復發機率。當曲綫在多年後開始平走時，復發風險降至極低，醫學上才勉強被定義為Cure或Statistical Cure。 故此，最本事的醫生也不能給予百份百的保證，只能說統計學上很大機會不復發，既無絕對，也不必強求絕對，只求最高水平的治療及最大程度的關懷，便能得到最高機會。 反正，Cure本身就是關懷！ Source link
