[Adrenalectomy for primary hyperaldosteronism : retrospective review of 57 patients in CHU of Liege].
Revue Médicale de Liège 2023 April
Primary hyperaldosteronism is the most common cause of secondary hypertension. Diagnostic clarification is essential because surgery is the treatment of choice for patients with unilateral disease (aldosterone-producing adenoma and unilateral cortical hyperplasia). We report a series of 57 patients that had adrenalectomy for primary hyperaldosteronism between April 1994 to January 2022 by the endocrine surgery team of the University Hospital of Liege. Our aim is to evaluate the diagnostic performance of adrenal venous sampling in lateralizing aldosterone hypersecretion and to compare it with other imaging techniques. The study also reviews postoperative outcomes in terms of blood pressure values, kalemia and antihypertensive medications.
