Their ages ranged from 5 to 71 years (mean =43.5 years). 41 of them (67%) had at least one of the considered associated factorsThe history of hypertension was in 10% of cases. 15% of patients had high systolic or diastolic blood pressure measurement without history of hypertension17% of patients had histor of diabetes mellitus. History of valsalva maneuver and use of anticoagulant drugs were positive in 15% and10% of them respectively.
