[Chance occurrence in illness].
The chance as an objective existing category is responsible for the fact that the processes in the nature and in the society seem to be chaotic although they are running of determinated. The chance is of special significance for the behaviour of complex organized living systems. It is an essential factor for the evolution and the development of the variety of the species. Disease represents a being of the life and in this context the chance is of great importance, too. This is concerning life and death, the process of the pathogenesis of the disease and its cause as well the individuality in relation to the group, the population and the species. In all these processes the chance is of different significance, so one can speak from the dialectic of the chance. The chance also determines the borderline of our scientific cognition.
