Abstract
Disease of the adrenal glands, as can be seen from the literary references cited by the author, can sometimes proceed without the symptoms of Addison's disease, in such cases the mental disorder appears especially clearly. The described case refers specifically to the latter. Pathological and anatomical examination found primary cancer of both adrenal glands. Only a small part of the medulla remained of them; neighboring tissues were not affected. By such localization of the destructive process, the author is inclined to explain the relatively rapid development of mental symptoms and the absence of even a hint of Addison's disease.
