What is the most common type of hypertension?


Healing with compassion, caring with dedication.
The most serious disease of essential hypertension is proliferation and fibrosis of smooth muscle cells in the middle layer of aorta, which can form aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection. Rupture can be fatal. Blood pressure should be actively controlled and checked regularly. The most serious disease of essential hypertension is the disease of aorta, mainly the proliferation and fibrosis of smooth muscle cells in the middle layer of aorta, resulting in thickening and loss of elasticity of aortic wall, forming atherosclerotic plaque, resulting in luminal stenosis. When aortic atherosclerosis occurs in ascending aorta, it can form aortic aneurysm, once ruptured, it can lead to fatal massive bleeding. In addition, hypertension can also lead to aortic dissection, which is a serious cardiovascular emergency. If it is not treated in time, the mortality rate is extremely high. Therefore, for patients with essential hypertension, blood pressure should be actively controlled to prevent and delay the occurrence and development of aortic lesions. At the same time, cardiovascular examinations, such as echocardiography, etc., should be carried out regularly in order to detect and treat aortic lesions early. In short, patients with essential hypertension should pay attention to the prevention and treatment of aortic disease, actively control blood pressure, and regularly perform cardiovascular examinations to protect the functions of important organs such as heart, brain and kidney.
