Secondary Adrenal Insufficiency Presenting With Severe Hyponatremia in an Elderly Patient With Primary Aldosteronism Suggesting Underlying Autonomous Cortisol Secretion [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Case Reports
Possible unrecognized cortisol autonomy in primary aldosteronism may suppress the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis. Under physiological stress, this may contribute to secondary adrenal insufficiency and severe hyponatremia.

Primary aldosteronism [PDF]

open access: yesGland Surgery, 2020
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is a common cause of secondary hypertension caused by excessive and inappropriate secretion of the hormone aldosterone from one or both adrenal glands. The prevalence of PA ranges from 10% in the general hypertensive population to 20% in resistant hypertension, yet only a small fraction of patients is diagnosed.

PRIMARY ALDOSTERONISM: CURRENT DIAGNOSTIC APPROACH

open access: yesБайкальский медицинский журнал, 2022
Primary aldosteronism is characterized by aldosterone secretion that is independent of renin and angiotensin II. The deleterious effects of primary aldosteronism are mediated by excessive activation of the mineralocorticoid receptor that results in the ...

Primary Aldosteronism Subtype Diagnosis: Adrenal Venous Sampling vs. CXCR4 PET CT [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 5, September 2026.
We compared CXCR4 PET/CT and AVS for primary aldosteronism subtyping. CXCR4 showed no statistical difference from AVS in diagnostic and prognostic outcomes in this study, which offers a non‐invasive alternative for PAlateralisation. ABSTRACT Purpose To explore the clinical value of adrenal venous sampling (AVS) and CXCR4‐directed 68Ga‐pentixafor PET/CT

Subclinical primary aldosteronism [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Endocrinology and Metabolism
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is a major contributor to hypertension and cardiovascular disease. Subclinical PA, a preclinical or early manifestation of PA, has been identified in individuals with normal blood pressure and in those with mild hypertension ...

Subclinical primary aldosteronism: toward a conceptual framework linking primary aldosteronism and low-renin hypertension [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
Primary aldosteronism (PA) has traditionally been considered a rare cause of secondary hypertension, but growing evidence supports a broader continuum of renin-independent aldosterone production extending into normotensive and mildly hypertensive ...

Primary aldosteronism in pregnancy

open access: yesReviews in Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders, 2022
AbstractPrimary aldosteronism (PA) is the most common form of secondary hypertension. Although hypertensive disorders seem to affect around 5–10% of pregnancies worldwide, literature counts less than 80 cases of PA diagnosed during the peri-partum period.

open access: yes, 2021
Objective: Develop a consensus for the nomenclature and definition of adrenal histopathologic features in unilateral primary aldosteronism (PA). Context: Unilateral PA is the most common surgically treated form of hypertension. Morphologic examination
