title: [Instructions with prophylactic therapy (author's transl)].
abstract: Jurisdiction demands thorough information to be given to the patient concerning kind, extent and possible complications of diagnostic, therapeutic and prophylactic procedures.--Uncertainty prevails because reliable rules on the mode of instruction do not exist and if they would, such instructions could often affect the patient. Examples of problems of prophylactic treatment and questions to the legal experts concerning necessary instructions to be given to the patient are presented.
