[Patient care and ethics. IV. The terminal patient who concealed the truth].
In this article a case is discussed in which a dentist is placed in a dilemma. He is working on a comprehensive treatment but his patient has deliberately concealed his terminal state of health. By chance he was told about the actual health situation of his patient. The question is discussed whether there is a moral justification to carry on with the treatment.
