Resumen

La hipertensión arterial (HTA) secundaria consiste en un aumento de la presión arterial debido a una causa identificable. Se estima una prevalencia alrededor del 5-15% de las personas con HTA.

La búsqueda de HTA secundaria en todos los pacientes hipertensos no es viable ni costo-efectiva. Sin embargo, hay una serie de características que obligan a descartarla, como son el debut de HTA antes de los 40 años, empeoramiento agudo de HTA, HTA resistente, presencia de amplia lesión de órgano diana o alteraciones clínicas-analíticas, etc. Es importante detectar a estos pacientes ya que los tratamientos pueden ser curativos, especialmente en jóvenes.

Presentamos el caso de un varón de 46 años que debutó con una urgencia hipertensiva y hemorragia subaracnoidea por rotura aneurismática. El estudio de causas secundarias resultó diagnóstico para una estenosis de la arteria renal debida a una arteritis de Takayasu en estadio cicatricial.

Palabras clave:

Abstract

Secondary arterial hypertension (HT) is an increase in blood pressure due to a recognisable cause. It is estimated that the prevalence of people with HT is around 5%-15%.

The search for secondary HT in all hypertensive patients is neither feasible nor cost-effective. However, there are a series of signs that force us to discount its diagnosis such as newly diagnosed hypertension before the age of 40, acute worsening of hypertension, resistant hypertension, the presence of extensive organ injury or clinical-analytical alterations, etc. It is important to diagnosis these patients since treatments can be curative, especially in young people.

We present the case of a 46-year-old man with hypertensive emergency and subarachnoid haemorrhage due to aneurysmal rupture. The study of secondary causes was diagnostic for renal artery stenosis due to Takayasu arteritis in the scarring stage.
