title: [Adventure and survival trips: possible medical problems].
abstract: Commercially available adventure and survival trips usually do not involve any serious health risks. Serious adventurous journeys lead into the great deserts, jungles and to extreme altitude and involve a whole spectrum of risks, depending on climate, latitude and inhabitants of the area. Survival is determined by the experience and the determination of the explorer of the unknown.
