Abstract:

Primary hyperaldosteronism is known to be one of the commonnest causes of arterial hypertension. The authors propose a diagnostic protocol for primary hyperaldosteronism and a method for comparative selective blood sampling from adrenal veins. This method is described as the sole tool for differential diagnostics of different nosological forms of primary hyperaldosteronism. A clinical case of idiopathic hyperaldosteronism is presented.
