--Average age is 45 y/o , few with in 10 to 20 y/o
Verruciform Xanthoma
• Clinical Features
-- Well circumscribed ,with a granular to papillary surface
-- Size ranges from 2mm to more than 2cm -- Exophytic or depressed surface is present -- Occasionally ulcerated
--Cranges from white to red due to keratinization level (most in white)

醫學倫理討論
1.生命的神聖性 (Sanctity of life)
•Tom Beauchamp &James Childress 六大原則 - 1979
1. 行善原則 (Beneficence):醫師要盡其所能延長病人之生命且減 輕病人之痛苦。
2. 誠信原則 (Veractity):醫師對其病人有「以誠信相對待」的義務 3. 自主原則 (Autonomy):病患對其己身之診療決定的自主權必須得 到醫師的尊重。
4. 不傷害原則 (Nonmaleficence):醫師要盡其所能避免病人承受不 必要的身心傷害。
5. 保密原則 (Confidentiality):醫師對病人的病情負有保密的責任。
6. 公義原則(Justice): 醫師在面對有限的醫療資源時,應以社會公 平正義的考量來協助合理分配醫療資源給真正最需要它的人。
七大原則
生命的神聖性
「上帝按他自己的形象造人。」「你將是神聖的,因 為我是神聖的。」「生命神聖」觀即由此衍生而 得。(創世紀1)
• 該觀點主張人的生命是無條件的,有價值及神聖的, 人繼承了上帝的品質,包括一切價值的來源-內具的 善 (intrinsic goodness),因此必須受到尊重。
• 藉此瞭解他個人生命的原真,而認知他個人存活在 世上的主要工作和生活的目的,找到個人存在的意 義、價值、目的與任務。
行善原則
讓我們的善行是生命流露的真善,而非求外表的偽 善。當在暗中求的神滿足,而非求人的稱讚。行 善不要灰心,而且行善是本分,不行就是罪(雅 4:17)。
• 以我們的專業知識和技能,站在患者的角度,訂 定最適合患者的診療計畫?
→有抽菸喝酒吃檳榔的患者,等口腔環境改善後再 進行各項翻瓣手術。
誠信原則
惟用愛心說誠實話,凡事長進,連於元首基督。全 身都靠他聯絡得合式,百節各按各職,照著各體 的功用,彼此相助,便叫身體漸漸增長,在愛中 建立自己。(弗4:15 ~16)
• 對於患者的疾病嚴重程度是否有確實地通知,盡 到告知的義務? 是否有清楚的向病人說明清楚疾 病病程、治療計畫、預後、風險?
→皆已告知病人後,經同意才進行不可逆治療。
自主原則
耶和華 神將那人安置在伊甸園,使他修理看守。耶 和華 神吩咐他說:“園中各樣樹上的果子,你可 以隨意吃;只是分別善惡樹上的果子,你不可吃
,因為你吃的日子必定死!” (創2:15~17)
• 充分說明病情及治療計畫、風險之後,是否有讓 病人充分自主地選擇治療計畫?
→有讓病人決定治療計畫,醫師只是提供專業建議
,決定權還是在病人自己身上
不傷害原則
要愛你們的仇敵,為那逼迫你們的禱告(太5:44)
前來求助於我們的患者沒有得罪我們,我們更不應 該傷害患者
• 是否有先完整瞭解病人的病史?
→治療前有完整蒐集病史資料,並與病患溝通後擬 定進一步的治療計畫
保密原則
• 告知的對象 1. 本人為原則
2. 病人未明示反對時,亦得告知其配偶與親屬 3. 病人為未成年人時,亦須告知其法定代理人
4. 若病人意識不清或無決定能力, 應須告知其法定代 理人、配偶、親屬或關係人
5. 病人得以書面敘明僅向特定之人告知或對特定對 象不予告知
公義原則
耶穌正在吃飯的時候,有一個女人帶來一隻玉瓶,
裡面盛滿很珍貴的純哪噠香膏;她打破玉瓶,把 香膏倒在耶穌頭上。有些人看了很不高興。耶穌 卻說那是一件美事!(可14:3~9)
•落實小病小醫院,大病大醫院的公義原則
→診所處理基本牙科問題,需要昂貴的檢驗器具(例 如pano, CT scan, biopsy examination)時,再轉診到大 醫院接受進一步的檢查及治療 。
醫學倫理總結
身為基督徒醫療人員,我們要委身於合乎聖經原則 的醫學倫理,以實踐「愛人如己」的誡命,成為 眾人的祝福。 ---基督徒的醫療倫理與責任 林慶豐
• 在病例撰寫方面應書寫詳盡, 使治療過程有詳實 的記錄及治療順利。
• 在進行治療之前,須請病人簽屬同意書
• 應在不違反醫學倫理的原則之下進行治療的行為
• 術後照護應盡心,盡力做好,以幫助病人恢復正 常生活
