title: [Combination of a hormonally active adrenal tumor with hypertensive disease of the kidneys].
abstract: The author observed 230 patients with hormone-active tumor of the adrenal attended with arterial hypertension. In 90 patients there were concomitant hypertensive diseases of the kidneys. The diagnosis of the concomitant disease was verified during roentgenography, aortography included. In 66 of 90 patients (73.3%) arterial hypertension followed a malignant course. The presence of adrenal tumor was verified morphologically after the operation in 208 patients and during autopsy in 22. The concomitant renal disease was confirmed histologically on autopsy in 7 fatal cases and by kidney biopsy in 36. The clinical characteristics of the variants of combined lesions of the kidneys and adrenals and the methods of their diagnosis are discussed. The author recommends examining the adrenals in all patients suffering from malignant arterial hypertension.
