title: [Interdisciplinary status of plastic, esthetic and reconstructive surgery in Austria].
abstract: To evaluate the actual status of interdisciplinary treatment involving plastic surgery in Austria in 1993 and 1994, standardised questionnaires were sent to all Departments of Plastic Surgery and to 129--mainly surgically orientated--medical departments in Vienna. The survey revealed that more than 50 percent of interdisciplinary co-operation took place with the departments of traumatology, general surgery and dermatology. The demand for co-operation with plastic surgeons was especially felt in tumor surgery, peripheral nerve surgery and hand surgery. An additional demand for co-operation represented larger soft tissue defects and congenital anomalies.
