Determination of adrenal hypersecretion in primary Aldosteronism without aldosterone-production adenomas

Abstract Background Primary aldosteronism (PA) is highly prevalent in hypertensive population. Adrenal vein sampling (AVS) is the only procedure to assess adrenal aldosterone hypersecretion in PA. PA patients without aldosterone-producing adenomas (APA) frequently have unilateral aldosterone hyperse...
