  • Title: [Cystic fibrosis: special value of treatment at a center].
    Author: Mannes GP, Heijerman HG.
    Journal: Ned Tijdschr Geneeskd; 1997 Oct 18; 141(42):2001-4. PubMed ID: 9550750.
    Abstract:
    A woman aged 30 and a man aged 40, both with a bad general condition due to cystic fibrosis, showed a clear clinical improvement after they were treated in a cystic fibrosis centre, while in a young adult male patient the diagnosis of cystic fibrosis could be rejected. In the Netherlands there are approximately 1000 patients with cystic fibrosis. As a consequence most doctors have hardly any experience of the treatment of such patients. To optimize the treatment of patients with cystic fibrosis, it would seem wise to concentrate experience and knowledge in several cystic fibrosis centres.
