title: Tachycardia, hypertension and syncope. A case report.
abstract: A case of orthostatic syncope with tachycardia and hypertension is described. Initially the condition was interpreted as a dysfunction in the neurovascular orthostatic regulation, but extensive physiologic examinations failed to give a comprehensive explanation. A psychiatric examination demonstrated the condition eventually to be hysteriform and the patient was completely cured by psychotherapy.
