Young hypertensive with accelerated hypertension , LVH and dyslipidemia Secondary causes of HTN Conn's syndrome Pheochromocytoma Renal artery stenosis Glomerular pathologies Need to rule out with investigations . Dyslipidemia should be evaluated and as sir mentioned metabolic syndrome , fatty liver should be addressed . As patient is young, bad habits like smoking , drinking or tobacco use also should be stopped immediately if history suggests so.
