[The future of psychiatric hospitals].

We are of the opinion that it is less important whether a large mental hospital is regionalized or not, but whether it is possible to realize the principle of universal psychiatric protection as a "unity of responsibilities of all subjects who take part in the protection of mental health and the society in the whole" by improvement and advancement of the existing system. We accept the opinion that the internal organization of mental hospitals has to be changed by organizing hospitals wards with 30-50 beds. We consider that in a perspective organization of psychiatric protection of all institutions (large hospitals, clinic, psychiatric wards of general hospitals, dispensaries and health centers) have their role and that the achieved level of the protection greatly depends on socio-economic level and possibilities.

[Case reports of patients with hepatolenticular degeneration-Wilson's disease with emphasis on work capacity].

We presented four patients with hepatolenticular degeneration--Wilson or hepatocerebral dystrophy-Wilson-Konovalov by soviet authors. Our cases were nervous variable of this disease or pseudosclerose (Westphal-Strumphell). The first three patients showed rigid--trembling and one trembling form of disease. All, patients were male. We think that it is very important early identification of this disease, to reduce time from acute manifestation to make a diagnosis and to apply appropriate therapy. This time period in our cases lasted from 0 to 4 years. Except use d- penicillamine (to 900 mg/daily) we think that is also very important use the acidum ascorbicum (to 4.5 gr/daily). This acidum shows less consumption of d- penicillamine and has low complication. Recurrent working ability begins with disappearance of neurological phenomenology and with rehabilitation of psychic status. All our patients we examined by ergometric and psychological tests and we obtained in results working ability population. In our experience and from therapeutic results to make this diagnosis does not mean a priori definite working ability.
