The prevalence of secondary hypertension in young adults is approximately 30%, most of which are endocrine disorders such as primary aldosteronism, pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma (PPGL), and Cushing syndrome.

It is a necessity to establish an accurate diagnosis through careful workup to provide optimal treatment.
