Abstract excerpt
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is the most common cause of secondary hypertension with a high prevalence among patients with resistant hypertension. Despite the recent discovery of somatic variants in aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA)-associated PA, causes for PA due to bilateral aldosterone production (bilateral hyperaldosteronism; BHA) remain unknown. Herein, we identified rare gene variants in ATP2B4, in a...
