[Consensus therapy of sexually transmissible diseases].

The organization and the management of sexually transmitted diseases shows large differences between general practitioners and specialists and also between specialists in dermato-venereology, obstetrics and urology. Changing insights in epidemiology, growing knowledge in complications, new technology in the diagnosis of sexually transmitted diseases and limited therapeutic possibilities have important implications for the different options in the control of sexually transmitted diseases. By promoting uniformity in strategies for sexually transmitted diseases these consensus guidelines have tried to formulate minimal standards for diagnostic procedures, therapy and follow-up for the most important sexually transmitted diseases.
