title: The unusual hypertensive patient.
abstract: Many young patients with systemic hypertension have secondary causes which if identified early could lessen the cardiovascular complications associated with long standing hypertension. Coarctation of the aorta is one of those rare causes. We describe a 40 year old male with hypertension, coarctation of the aorta, bicuspid aortic valve, PDA and an adrenal mass.
