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.

Заболѣваніе надпочечныхъ железъ, какъ видно изъ приведенныхъ авторомъ литературныхъ справокъ, иногда можетъ протекать безъ симптомовъ Адиссоновой болѣзни, въ такихъ случаяхъ психическое разстройство выступаетъ особенно ясно. Описанный случай относится именно къ послѣднимъ. Патолого-анатомическимъ изслѣдованіемъ найденъ первичный ракъ обоихъ надпочечниковъ. Отъ нихъ осталась только небольшая часть мозговиднаго вещества; сосѣднія ткани не были поражены. Такой локализаціей разрушающаго процесса авторъ склоненъ объяснять сравнительно бурное развитіе психическихъ симптомовъ и отсутствіе даже намековъ на Адиссонову болѣзнь.
