Summary

The most common two subtypes of primary aldosteronism (PA ) are aldosterone producing adenoma (APA) and bilateral idiopathic hyperaldosteronism (IHA). Mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonists is the main treatment for bilateral IHA, because of its side effects, the treatment compliance of those patients is poor. Hence, an alternative therapy is needed in such cases. We hypothesized that superselective adrenal artery embolization (SAAE) could be a suitable alternative approach. To our knowledge, SAAE has so far not been applied to treat bilateral IHA. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SAAE in the treatment of PA patients with bilateral IHA.

Conditions

  • Primary Aldosteronism Due to Adrenal Hyperplasia (Bilateral)

Interventions

PROCEDURE

superselective adrenal arterial embolization

Superselective adrenal arterial embolization is an operation to inject embolic agent into adrenal artery through catheter to embolize part of adrenal gland, so as to reduce the secretion of adrenal hormone and reduce blood pressure
