The failures to produce symptoms after attempted removal of theglands have probably resulted from incomplete removal or the presence of 430 METABOLISM, NUTRITION, AND DIET accessory bodies. Accessory suprarenal capsules are commonly present insome animals and are sometimes found in man. Further, if one gland isremoved, the other hypertrophies. The experiments of all recent observersconfirm the original experiments of Brown-Sequard. The presence of thesuprarenal capsules is essential to life. Schaffer and Oliver found that injections o
