Primary aldosteronism is one of the most common forms of secondary arterial hypertension. Adrenalectomy is effective in patients with proven unilateral hypersecretion of aldosterone whereas pharmacotherapy is indicated in bilateral forms of the disease. We can meet the opinion that in patients with confirmed primary aldosteronism and finding ofsuprarenal adenoma > or = 1 cm on computed tomography (CT) scanning, adrenalectomy can be recommended without further investigation. On the other hand we can perform adrenal venous sampling (AVS) to prove unilateral overproduction of aldosterone.
