[Clinical medicine in developing countries].
Clinical medicine in developing countries is often restricted in several ways due to factors such as lack of funds, trained personnel, diagnostic facilities and appropriate drugs. Clinical judgement, knowledge of the local epidemiological pattern and simple diagnostic and therapeutic procedures are crucial under such circumstances. Based on his own experience under primitive conditions in Ethiopia, the author gives some symptom-oriented differential diagnostic reflections and guidelines for simplified management of some major health problems in the tropics.
