title: A patient with Lindau-von Hippel disease--a nursing challenge.
abstract: After six weeks participation in the rehabilitation program, D.K. was ready for discharge. He was receiving medications for symptomatic treatment: fluorocortisone acetate, cortisone acetate, and cimetidine. Rehabilitation goals were met to some degree; his strength was increased significantly and both motor control and balance were slightly better than at admission. He and his family recognized the need for ongoing care and agreed to be seen for follow-up treatment at the rehabilitation center.
