title: [Problems in the psychiatric treatment of foreign patients].
abstract: The contribution deals with problems encountered during the psychiatric treatment of foreign patients, particularly with those from developing countries. It has been found that scope for socio- and psychotherapeutic treatment is very restricted and that the frequent necessity of returning these patients to their native countries leads to not unconsiderable conflicts. Questions of transcultural psychiatry are regaining importance in connection with increasing migration.
