[Hyperplasia of the adrenal medulla].

A case of arterial hypertension due to suprarenal medulla hyperplasia is reported. Having accepted the existence of this form, the problem of its recognition is stressed, in the presence of catecholamine pathology, even though the type or site of its anatomo-pathological substrate cannot be identified, explorative surgery and possible removal of the suprarenal glands can be indicated.
