Adrenal computed tomography and NP-59 usefulness for diagnosing aldosterone-producing adenomas and idiopathic hyperaldosteronism in primary hyperaldosteronism

open access: yesUrological Science, 2016
Objectives: Two major causes of primary aldosteronism are aldosterone-producing adenomas (APA) and idiopathic hyperaldosteronism (IHA). In this study, we attempted to determine the role of NP-59 in identifying APA prior to adrenalectomy, especially when ...
