Abstract

One of a pair of identical twins suffered from hypertension and coronary artery disease, whereas his brother was healthy. The clinical evidence suggested that psychological factors may have been of primary significance in the production of hypertension in the affected twin. The case studies of the patient and his twin brother in their similarities and contrast are very interesting.
