Abstract

The term "traumatic illness" is of purely domestic origin. The Russian tradition is to call something incomprehensible or not fully understood a disease. Approximately the same history has, for example, "hypertension". And if Frank in the beginning of the XX century, not being able to find out all causes of hypertension, called it essential, i.e. having no easy origin, then on the Russian soil by the 40s it turned into "hypertensive disease", and G.F. Lang consolidated this notion with his excellent monograph, which was called "Hypertensive disease".
