ABSTRACT
In a 45-year-old female with chronic uncontrolled hypertension complicated by hypokalemia, laboratory and radiological findings were consistent with an aldosterone producing adenoma [APA]. Diagnosis of Conn's syndrome was confirmed by histopathology. The hypokalemia resolved and her hypertension improved after laparoscopic adrenalectomy. Discussion of the case, diagnosis and treatment are presented
