Abstract

Classic aldosteronism (with hypokalemia) accounts for about 0.7-1 % of cases of hypertension (1,2,3,4). Hypertension, polyuria, polydipsia, muscular weakness, hypokalemia.hypernatremia, alkalosis, elevated plasma and urine aldosterone levels and low plasma renin level are classic findings of primary aldosteronism (1). The disorder is more common in females. Primary aldosteronism occur due to two reasons; bilateral cortical hyperplasia (27 %) and unilateral adrenocortical adenoma (73 %). Conn's syndrome is defined by classic findings and unilateral adrenocortical adenoma (aldos-teronoma).

Özet

Klasik aldosteronizm (hipokalemi ile birlikte olan) hipertansiyon vakalarının yaklaşık % 0.7-1'ni oluşturmaktadır (1,2,3,4). Hipertansiyon, poliüri, polidipsi, kas güçsüzlüğü, hipokalemi, hipernatremi, alkaloz, yüksek plazma ve idrar aldosteron seviyeleri ve düşük plazma renin seviyesi primer aldosteronizmin klasik bulgularındandır (1). Hastalık kadınlarda daha sık görülmektedir (1,2). Primer aldosteronizm iki nedenden dolayı meydana gelir; bilateral kortikal hiperplazi (%27) ve unilateral adrenokortikal adenoma (%73) (3,4). Conn's sendromu; klasik bulgular ve unilateral adrenokortical adenom (aldesteronoma) ile tanımlanan tablodur (3,4).
