Article information

Se presenta un caso clínico correspondiente a una paciente de 48 años, casada, con historia familiar de hipertensión y que presenta una enfermedad hipertensiva de 7 años de evolución con valores correspondientes a una hipertensión grado II-III, rebelde a todo tratamiento farmacológico utilizado. La negatividad de todas las pruebas para confirmar el carácter secundario del proceso unido a la mejoría espectacular tras diversas hospitalizaciones y alejamiento del entorno familiar plantean la posibilidad de tratarse una hipertensión refractaria derivada de un conflicto psíquico profundo, aunque no filiado.

We describe the case of a 48 year-old married woman, with a family history of hypertension. She presented with a 7 year history of hypertension (stages II-III), without response to all the pharmacological treatments previously administered. The negative results of the laboratory studies in order to confirm a secondary process together with the dramatical improvement of the patient after several hospitalizations and the estrangement from her family environment led us to consider the diagnosis of refractory hypertension caused by a severe psychical conflict, albeit non filiated.
