Abstract

THE orthostatic hypotension in the presence of essential hypertension with the organic changes in the cardiovascular system is only rarely reported. The remarkable fluctuation of the blood pressure in this may be a precipitation factor of myocardial infarction as it was suggested by Dr. Mainzer.
