Area of Science:

  • Endocrinology
  • Nephrology
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Adrenal hypertension is uncommon, but primary aldosteronism should be suspected with co-occurring hypokalemia.
  • Primary aldosteronism is most frequently caused by an adrenal gland cortex adenoma.

Observation:

  • This report details a single case of primary aldosteronism.

Findings:

  • The patient underwent successful unilateral resection of the adrenal adenoma.
  • The surgical procedure had no complications.

Implications:

  • This case demonstrates favorable medium-term results following adrenal adenoma resection.
  • Surgical intervention is a viable treatment option for select cases of primary aldosteronism.
