Dysautonomia causing severe orthostatic hypotension: an important, early finding in neurodegenerative disorders
Dysautonomia causing severe orthostatic hypotension: an important, early finding in neurodegenerative disorders
Orthostatic hypotension is common and dangerous; it has neurogenic and nonneurogenic causes. We present the case of a 40-year-old man with severe neurogenic hypotension, caused by young-onset multiple system atrophy. In patients presenting with neurogenic orthostatic hypotension, underlying neurodegenerative diseases should always be considered. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).

Abstract
Orthostatic hypotension is common and dangerous; it has neurogenic and nonneurogenic causes. We present the case of a 40-year-old man with severe neurogenic hypotension, caused by young-onset multiple system atrophy. In patients presenting with neurogenic orthostatic hypotension, underlying neurodegenerative diseases should always be considered. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).
