benign hypertension

Essential hypertension that runs a relatively long and symptomless course.

benign hypertension,

a misnomer implying a harmless elevation of blood pressure. Because any sustained elevation of blood pressure may adversely affect health, it is incorrect to refer to the condition as "benign." See also essential hypertension.
