Abstract
Cuando un sujeto va a la altura, debe adaptarse primero a una condición de anoxia permanente, haciendo uso de sus mecanismos de emergencia, para alcanzar después, con un nuevo tipo de equilibrio biológico, el estado balanceado de homeostasis del hombre andino. En consecuencia, el período adaptativo constituye pues una enfermedad: el Mal de Montaña, que puede ser inaparente, agudo, subagudo o crónico.
