Histopathology and Molecular Profiling of Primary Aldosteronism.

Abstract excerpt

Primary aldosteronism is the most common surgically treatable form of hypertension. Surgically amenable forms are characterized by lateralized aldosterone overproduction, which may occur along a spectrum ranging from true unilateral hypersecretion to asymmetrical bilateral production. Historically attributed to solitary aldosterone-producing adenomas, lateralized primary aldosteronism is now recognized to...
