title: [Human genetics. Clinical and preventive aspects from the viewpoint of obstetrics and gynecology].
abstract: Clinical genetics and genetic counselling can be applied effectively only, if close cooperation is secured between the clinical geneticist and the physician in the field. The limited capacity of all institutes of human genetics makes it mandatory that general practicioners and the various specialists preselect patients for special genetic work-up and counselling. Quite often it is their obligation also to secure and document findings, prerequisite for effective genetic counselling, which would be lost otherwise. Special points are discussed and illustrated with typical cases.
