متن کاملIncidentally Discovered Aldosterone and Cortisol Cosecreting Adrenal Cortical Adenoma
As the frequency of performing abdominal computed tomography (CT) scanning is increasing, owing to the increased quality of medical services, the prevalence of adrenal incidentalomas is also rising. Although most adrenal incidentalomas are benign and nonfunctioning, a substantial proportion demonstrates subtle hormonal hypersecretion. Adrenal adenomas mainly manifest as autonomous cortisol secr...
متن کاملCoexistence of aldosterone-producing adrenocortical adenoma and pheochromocytoma in an ipsilateral adrenal gland.
A 40-year-old female, diagnosed as essential hypertension, demonstrated a 2 cm mass in left adrenal gland by computed tomography without abnormal endocrinological findings. (131)I-adosterol and (123)I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scintigraphy at 39 years of age showed no abnormal accumulation. Follow up (131)I-adosterol scintigraphy performed one year later showed apparently abnormal uptake a...
متن کاملPrimary aldosteronism in a patient with an aldosterone-producing adenoma.
We describe an unusual patient presenting with a history of refractory hypertension and hypokalemia. Initial screening tests for adrenal hypertension were consistent with primary aldosteronism and an abdominal computed tomography scan showed an 8-mm left adrenal mass. However, adrenal venous sampling revealed markedly suppressed plasma aldosterone in the left adrenal vein but increased plasma a...
متن کاملCTNNB1 Mutation in Aldosterone Producing Adenoma
Discoveries of somatic mutations permit the recognition of subtypes of aldosterone-producing adenomas (APAs) with distinct clinical presentations and pathological features. Catenin β1 (CTNNB1) mutation in APAs has been recently described and discussed in the literature. However, significant knowledge gaps still remain regarding the prevalence, clinical characteristics, pathophysiology, and outc...
