Abstract
A condition for an unbounded operator to have a normal extension, which is a matrix operator, is given. The circumstances under which this condition may become necessary are discussed as well and finally a question is posed. By the way some substantial facts concerning infinite operator matrices with unbounded entries are gathered.
