Article Abstract

Anatomical cardiovascular etiologies are less frequently investigated and identified in cases of orthostatic intolerance, which can have a profound impact on a patient's functional status. Here, we present a 26-year-old female with a recent diagnosis of hyperadrenergic postural orthostatic tachycardia and hypertension who was found to have diminished pedal pulses. Workup revealed an underlying midaortic syndrome that was then surgically corrected with resolution of symptoms. We discuss the epidemiology, presentation, and management of this rare condition, as well as its role in our patient's symptomatology.
