The second fundamental theorem due to Nevanlinna for meromorphic functions in the complex plane has been generalized to moving targets. Concerning the defect relation, \textit{G. Frank} and \textit{G. Weissenborn} [Bull. Lond. Math. Soc. 18, 29--33 (1986; Zbl 0586.30025)] obtained an analogue for rational functions as targets. For the case of general small functions as targets, \textit{N. Steinmetz} solved this problem in [J. Reine Angew. Math. 368, 134--141 (1986; Zbl 0598.30045)]. The tools are auxiliary functions defined by Wronski determinants. The author considers the unit disc counterpart of the defect relations. The following is shown: Let \(f\) be a meromorphic function in the unit disc and let \(a_1,\dots,a_k\) be distinct small meromorphic functions with respect to \(f\). Then, for any \(\varepsilon>0\) the following inequality holds \[ m(r,f)+\sum\limits_{\nu=1}^k m(r,a_\nu,f)\leq (2+\varepsilon)T(r,f)+O\left(\log\frac1{1-r}\right)+S(r,f). \] In the proof, some types of Wronski determinants play an important role. As the author mentions, for meromorphic functions in the complex plane, \textit{K. Yamanoi} obtained the exact analogue of the second main theorem including the ramification relation [Acta Math. 192, No. 2, 225--294 (2004; Zbl 1203.30035)]. The author also considers analogues of Ullrich's theorem for small functions in the unit disc.
