title: [Dermatitis digitalis? Considerations in the evaluation of an intensive therapy].
abstract: A piece of clinical research was performed to illustrate the recovery process of Digital Dermatitis on a chronically contaminated cattle farm. The combined effect of intensive individual treatment and an antibiotic foot-bath was examined. In addition to the classical condition recognized as Mortellaro's disease we found an aspecific form of Digital Dermatitis which failed to respond adequately to the currently recommended therapy.
