title: [Oral and maxillofacial tumors and alcoholism].
abstract: The importance of a holistic treatment approach in patients with oral and maxillofacial tumors is emphasized both under psychological and medical aspects. The objectives of psychological care, which has been integrated into the treatment concept of the University Hospital of Münster since the beginning of 1988, are particularly related to dealing with and mastering of the disease and the treatment of alcoholism, a frequently observed problem. This concept is described in detail by Kolbe and Hemprich (1989). The article covers the experience gained in the first year since psychological care has been integrated.
