The predominant majority of cases of hypertension are primary in nature, i.e., there is no underlying cause or culprit process which brings about the elevation of the blood pressure. A very small percentage of the patients are affected by secondary hypertension, or a combination of primary and secondary processes. Embarking on an exhaustive evaluation of potential secondary causes of hypertension is not called for in every instance. Depending on the clinical presentation, however, the existence of a number of conditions may need to be ruled out in these patients.
