Primary Aldosteronism

Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 1995
The mineralocorticoid-excess state caused by primary aldosteronism usually causes hypokalemia and moderate to sever hypotension. A directed approach to the patient with suspected primary aldosteronism is essential. Appropriate use of biochemical and diagnostic imaging studies can identify the etiology of the primary aldosteronism in an efficient and ...

Primary aldosteronism

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2009
AbstractPrimary aldosteronism is the most common form of secondary hypertension. Case detection is based on an abnormal plasma aldosterone:plasma renin activity ratio and the diagnosis must be confirmed with an aldosterone suppression test. Subtype differentiation should be performed using adrenal venous sampling.

Abstract:Since its initial description in 1955, primary aldosteronism was thought to be a rare cause of hypertension. However, improved screening methods show that primary aldosteronism is a common form of secondary hypertension. Diagnosis of this disorder results in improved or cured hypertension or targeted pharmacotherapy. Patients with hypertension

Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2003
Approaching the fiftieth year since its original description, primary aldosteronism is now thought to be the commonest potentially curable and specifically treatable form of hypertension. Correct identification of patients with primary aldosteronism requires that the effects of time of day, posture, dietary sodium intake, potassium levels and ...
