Answer

It may be hypertension induced cardiac failure. Rule out coarctation of aorta and aortoarteritis. A colour doppler of abdominal as well as thoracic arota would be adviseable. Also check blood pressure in all 4 limbs. If there is aortoarteritis, rule out autoimmune disorders. Control BP with nitroprusside or even nitroglycerine drip in ICU setting.
