[Couple therapy in the presence of severe physical disability--a case example (author's transl)].
A case report is presented describing the possible applications of couple therapy (Masters/Johnson) in couples where a severe physical disability is present, beyond disturbances of sexual functioning. In the instance reported, a severe sexual aversion was present in the wife, with disturbances of excitation and orgasm, while the husband was paralysed due to adult poliomyelitis affecting his entire trunk and limbs. Based on the course of therapy and its outcome, the author discusses the specific problems and potentialities of this type of therapeutic intervention.
