DEFINITION
• Essential, primary, or idiopathic hypertension is defined as high BP in which secondary causes or mendelian (monogenic) forms are not present
• High BP – repeatedly measured BP exceeding 140/90 mmHg, i.e. a systolic BP above 140 and/or diastolic BP above 90

Aetiology of Hypertension
• Primary – 90-95% of cases – also termed “essential” of “idiopathic”
• Secondary – about 5% of cases– Renal or renovascular disease– Endocrine disease
• Phaeochomocytoma• Cushings syndrome• Conn’s syndrome• Acromegaly and hypothyroidism
– Coarctation of the aorta– Iatrogenic
• Hormonal / oral contraceptive• NSAIDs

Hypertension in parenchymal renal disease:CONCLUSIONS
• Hypertension may result from renal disease that reduces functioning nephrons;
• Evidence shows a clear relationship between high blood pressure and end-stage renal disease;
• BP should be controlled to 130/85 mmHg (125/75 mmHg in patients with proteinuria in excess of 1g/24 h)

RENAL ARTERY STENOSIS(RAS)
• Atherosclerotic RAS (>90% of cases): involves the ostium and the proximal portion of the main renal artery with plaque extending into the perirenal aorta
• Fibromuscular dysplasia (10% of cases): typically seen in young and middle-aged females. As opposed to atherosclerotic RAS, fibromuscular dysplasia typically affects the distal two thirds of the main renal artery

RENAL ARTERY STENOSIS:treatment
• BP control
• Antiplatelet, lipid-lowering therapy, and beta-blockers, if appropriate
• No ACE-inhibitors in severe RAS !
![Page 11: CLINICAL APPROACHES TO SECONDARY HYPERTENSION. DEFINITION Essential, primary, or idiopathic hypertension is defined as high BP in which secondary causes](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e395503460f94b2a0be/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

● Resistant or poorly controlled hypertension and unilateral or bilateral renal artery stenosis
● Renal artery stenosis and recurrent flash pulmonary edema for which there is no readily explainable cause
● Chronic renal failure and bilateral renal artery stenosis or renal artery stenosis to a solitary functioning kidney
● Sonographic renal longitudinal length >7cm
![Page 12: CLINICAL APPROACHES TO SECONDARY HYPERTENSION. DEFINITION Essential, primary, or idiopathic hypertension is defined as high BP in which secondary causes](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e395503460f94b2a0be/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Aetiology of Hypertension
• Primary – 90-95% of cases – also termed “essential” of “idiopathic”
• Secondary – about 5% of cases– Renal or renovascular disease– Endocrine disease
• Phaeochomocytoma (0.1-0.6 %)• Cushings syndrome• Conn’s syndrome• Acromegaly and hypothyroidism
– Coarctation of the aorta– Iatrogenic

![Page 13: CLINICAL APPROACHES TO SECONDARY HYPERTENSION. DEFINITION Essential, primary, or idiopathic hypertension is defined as high BP in which secondary causes](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e395503460f94b2a0be/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The left ventricle is markedly thickened in this patient with severe hypertension that was untreated for many years. The myocardial fibers have undergone hypertrophy.
![Page 14: CLINICAL APPROACHES TO SECONDARY HYPERTENSION. DEFINITION Essential, primary, or idiopathic hypertension is defined as high BP in which secondary causes](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e395503460f94b2a0be/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
This left ventricle is very thickened (slightly over 2 cm in thickness), but the rest of the heart is not greatly enlarged. This is typical for hypertensive heart disease. The hypertension creates a greater pressure load on the heart to induce the hypertrophy.
![Page 15: CLINICAL APPROACHES TO SECONDARY HYPERTENSION. DEFINITION Essential, primary, or idiopathic hypertension is defined as high BP in which secondary causes](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e395503460f94b2a0be/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
PHEOCHROMOCYTOMAdiagnostic techniques
Biochemical tests High pressure liquid chromatography:
• Plasma catecholamines: noradrenaline, adrenaline;
• Free plasma fractionated metanephrines: normetanephrine, metanephrine;
• Urinary catecholamines (24h)• Urinary fractionated metanephrines (24h)
Spectrophotometry:• Total metanephrines (24h urine);• Vanillylmandelic acid (24h urine)
![Page 16: CLINICAL APPROACHES TO SECONDARY HYPERTENSION. DEFINITION Essential, primary, or idiopathic hypertension is defined as high BP in which secondary causes](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e395503460f94b2a0be/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
PHEOCHROMOCYTOMAimaging techniques
• Duplex sonography;
• Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI);
• Computed romography (CT);
• 123I – meta-iodo-benzyl-guanidine scanning (123I-MIBG)
![Page 17: CLINICAL APPROACHES TO SECONDARY HYPERTENSION. DEFINITION Essential, primary, or idiopathic hypertension is defined as high BP in which secondary causes](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e395503460f94b2a0be/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
PHEOCHROMOCYTOMA: laparoscopic removalPreoperative Management (10-14 days)
Purpose: to prevent catecholamine induced, serious, and potentially life-threatening complications during surgery, including hypertensive crises, cardiac arrhythmias, pulmonary oedema, and cardiac ischemia;
BP should be reduced to below 160/90 mm Hg for at least 24h;
orthostatic hypotension should be present, but blood pressure in the upright position should not fall below 80/45 mm Hg;
there should be no more than one ventricular extrasystole every 5 min;
and the electrocardiogram should show no S-T segment changes and T-wave inversions for 1 week;
![Page 18: CLINICAL APPROACHES TO SECONDARY HYPERTENSION. DEFINITION Essential, primary, or idiopathic hypertension is defined as high BP in which secondary causes](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e395503460f94b2a0be/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
PHEOCHROMOCYTOMA:Management
• Phenoxybenzamine, a long acting alpha-adrenergic blocker, is the mainstay of medical treatment to control BP. A total dose of 1 mg/kg is sufficient in most patients.
• An alpha-blocker Doxazosin in increasing doses from 1 to 16 mg once a day.
•A beta-adrenoceptor blocker (eg,propranolol 40 mg three times daily or atenolol 25–50 mg once daily) could be included after several days of alpha-adrenergic blockade.
• Adequate salt and fluid intake lowers the risk of orthostatic hypotension.
![Page 19: CLINICAL APPROACHES TO SECONDARY HYPERTENSION. DEFINITION Essential, primary, or idiopathic hypertension is defined as high BP in which secondary causes](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e395503460f94b2a0be/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
PHEOCHROMOCYTOMA:Management
•Should substantial rises in blood pressure still take place during surgery, these can be controlled by bolus or by continuous infusion of phentolamine, sodium nitroprusside, or a shortacting calcium antagonist (eg, nicardipine);
• Tachyarrhythmias can be treated by infusion of a shortacting -adrenoceptor blocker (eg, esmolol).

• Secondary – about 5% of cases– Renal or renovascular disease– Endocrine disease
• Phaeochomocytoma• Cushings syndrome
• Conn’s syndrome (0.3-1%)• Acromegaly and hypothyroidism

![Page 21: CLINICAL APPROACHES TO SECONDARY HYPERTENSION. DEFINITION Essential, primary, or idiopathic hypertension is defined as high BP in which secondary causes](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e395503460f94b2a0be/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Primary Hyperaldosteronism• Screening for hyperaldosteronism should include
plasma aldosterone and plasma renin activitymeasured in morning samples
• Plasma aldosterone:renin ratio: normally <20; diagnostic cut-off value >30;
• Aldosterone excretion rate during salt loading, captopril, or spironolactone test (the captopril test may be less useful in blacks because of the high prevalence of low plasma renin activity)
• Adrenal CT, MRI
![Page 22: CLINICAL APPROACHES TO SECONDARY HYPERTENSION. DEFINITION Essential, primary, or idiopathic hypertension is defined as high BP in which secondary causes](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e395503460f94b2a0be/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Primary HyperaldosteronismShould be differentiated from
• Secondary hyperaldosteronism in patients with renal failure, CHF, essential hypertension
• Monogenic forms of hypertension (pseudohyperaldosteronism):
Liddle’s syndrome (autosomal-dominant disorder, characterized by low-renin, low-aldosterone, low-potassium volume-expanded hypertension)
Gordon’s syndrome (autosomal-dominant disorder, characterized by low-renin, low-aldosterone, high-potassium volume-expanded hypertension)

Primary Hyperaldosteronism
