Abstract: CASE HISTORY: A 25-year old female patient was referred to St. Luke's Hospital with a history of hypertension detected 4 months previously when the patient visited her G.P. for a sore throat. She was then put on Bendrofluozide and a salt-free diet pending investigations. Systemic enquiry of the patient only revealed frequent frontal headaches, slight dyspnoea on exertion and a slight ache over her loins. She gave no history of haematuria or dysuria, no ankle oedema or puffiness around the eyes, no loss of weight, nausea or vomiting. The patient had been operated two years previously for a lump in the breast which histology showed to be due to mammary dysplasia. There were no remarkable features in her family history.
