　　鳳凰財經訊 4月18日上午消息，據MarketWatch報道，億萬富翁投資者、“股神”沃倫-巴菲特(Warren Buffet)今天稱，他已患上一期前列腺癌，但遠未危及生命，並決定將於7月中旬開始接受放射治療。以下為巴菲特致伯克希爾-哈撒韋股東信。

　　伯克希爾-哈撒韋股東：

　　本信是告知各位我已被診斷患一期前列腺癌症。好消息是醫生告知我的病情遠不危及生命，甚至不會顯著影響身體機能。上週三我接受了診斷，週四做了CAT掃描和骨掃描，本週三做了核磁共振。這些檢查均未顯示身體其餘部分患癌。

　　醫生和我本人決定，從7月中旬開始進行為期兩個月的每日放療。在此期間我的出行將受到限制，但日常工作不會發生變化。

　　我感覺良好——仿佛處於正常的良好健康狀態中——我的精力十分充沛。我發現自己患癌，是因為前列腺特異性抗原(PSA)水平近來大超正常水平，活檢似乎得到確認。

　　要是病情發生變化，我將立刻通知各位股東。當然，最終那一天將到來，但我相信離那一天還很遠。

　　FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE April 17, 2012

　　Omaha, NE (BRK.A; BRK.B) –

　　To the Shareholders of Berkshire Hathaway:

　　This is to let you know that I have been diagnosed with stage I prostate cancer. The good news is that I’ve been told by my doctors that my condition is not remotely lifethreatening or even debilitating in any meaningful way. I received my diagnosis last Wednesday. I then had a CAT scan and a bone scan on Thursday, followed by an MRI today. These tests showed no incidence of cancer elsewhere in my body。

　　My doctors and I have decided on a two-month treatment of daily radiation to begin in mid-July. This regimen will restrict my travel during that period, but will not otherwise change my daily routine。

　　I feel great – as if I were in my normal excellent health – and my energy level is 100 percent. I discovered the cancer because my PSA level (an indicator my doctors had regularly checked for many years) recently jumped beyond its normal elevation and a biopsy seemed warranted。

　　I will let shareholders know immediately should my health situation change. Eventually,of course, it will; but I believe that day is a long way off。

　　Warren E. Buffett

　　另法新社報道，巴菲特表示自己的前列腺癌處於早期，而且醫生告訴他病情不會危及生命，也不會令其身體出現明顯的衰弱症狀。
