title: [Gastrointestinal microecology in internal medicine].
abstract: Gastrointestinal microecology is a field with highest integrative pretension. Its clinical actuality is reflected in numerous diseases. Colonization anomalies may become relevant particularly in the case of microbial overgrowth-syndrome. Due to recent experimental results, intestinal microbes are gaining a certain importance with respect of the utilization of hard- or non-absorbable carbohydrates. With regard to a further thinking over the conception of selective decontamination gastrointestinal microecology is challenged, too. Hitherto, the various microbial alterations of drugs and contaminants got little consideration. A microbial participation in the genesis of chronic inflammatory intestinal diseases as well as of carcinoma of the colon becomes subject of discussion, increasingly.
