Аннотация

We analyzed the issue of a young woman who wanted our opinion regarding uncontrolled hypertension. Her hypertension was discovered to have a highly unusual origin, but it is fairly prevalent in nations like India. A 19-year-old woman who complained of blurred vision was presented to an ophthalmologist, who diagnosed her with grade IV hypertensive retinopathy. Her 2D ECHO was normal, hence a thorough screening for secondary hypertension was carried out. A left paravertebral tumor that may have squeezed the left renal artery and contributed to her hypertension was discovered during the workup by a CECT chest and abdomen scan. She also exhibited widespread lymphadenopathy; a condition known as granulomatous pathology. She was started on anti-TB medication, and after six months of treatment, her radiological and clinical conditions improved. This case highlights a rare instance of TB causing excessively elevated blood pressure.
