[The symptomatic therapy of hemorrhoids and anal eczema--a report of experiences from proctology practice].

Besides the various operative procedures, which nowadays have come into use in hemorrhoidal disorders, drug therapy as well continues to keep an important place. Its main conditions of application are inflammatory processes before, between and after hemorrhoidal sclerosis or proctological operations. In a clinical study suppositories with the corticoid fluocortolone-21-pivalate and the local anesthetic lidocaine hydrochloride as well as a cream with the same substances and in addition, chlorquinaldol were tested in 92 patients with hemorrhoidal diseases and their concomitant conditions. In 92% of the cases efficacy of the preparations proved to be good or very good, and in all cases they were well tolerated.

[Once daily administration of isoconazole as a cream, solution and spray: comparative studies of patients with dermatomycoses].

In 3 controlled multi-center studies, 372 patients suffering from dermatomycoses were treated with isoconazole as cream, solution, and spray either once or twice daily. Neither with regard to the duration of healing nor the healing rates were observed statistically significant differences between the two modes of treatment. As to the forms of preparation, there were no differences of efficacy either. At the end of treatment, the cure rates amounted to 90-94%. Follow-up examinations carried out two weeks later gave no indications of relapses.

[Basic problems of medical ethics].

The discussion on ethical problems in reproductive medicine that has been going on for quite a decade, is of an exemplary nature; it is mainly focussed on extracorporeal fertilisation, prenatal diagnosis with a view to abortion, and post partum diagnosis and treatment of genetic diseases. The fundamental problems of medical ethics in general come to the fore particularly clearly in this discussion. The following article deals with these fundamental problems, whereas a subsequent article will be concerned in greater detail with the three special disciplines I have just mentioned.
