Summary: Communication with the patient on various aspects of his disease is one of the most important
skills of every doctor. Despite this for some doctors informing on the diagnosis in diseases which
potentially endanger the patient´s life is a great problem. In everyday practice open and sensitively presented information on the diagnosis and prognosis leads to better acceptance of the disease
by the patient and his family. At the same time it arouses in the patient realistic expectations and
plans, promotes his feeling of autonomy and also confidence in the doctor. It creates also a framework for effective collaboration and communication between the patient, his family and health
works. In our department we published repetedly socalled „ten commandments on information
about oncological diagnoses“. We are presenting its modfication based on the experience assembled during the past ten years.
