RESUMEN
La hipertensión arterial de causa adrenal asociada al embarazo es infrecuente. Su presencia genera una elevada morbilidad y mortalidad materna y fetal. Los cambios de la fisiología endocrina que acontecen en esta etapa, modifican el cuadro clínico y bioquímico de las enfermedades adrenales causantes de hipertensión. El objetivo de esta revisión es brindar información actualizada sobre el hipercortisolismo endógeno, el aldosteronismo primario y el feocromocitoma en la gestación -a los profesionales de la salud vinculados con la atención a embarazadas- que les permita diagnosticar y tratarlas temprana y adecuadamente mediante la aplicación del método clínico. Se revisa la literatura y se exponen los avances médicos en el tema(AU)
ABSTRACT
Blood hypertension of adrenal origin associated to pregnancy is unfrequent and generates high maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Changes in the endocrine physiology during this phase modify the clinical and biochemical picture of hypertension-causing adrenal diseases. The objective of this review was to provide health professionals in charge of pregnancy care with updated information on endogenous hypercortisolism, primary aldosteronism and pheochromocytoma in pregnancy. This will allow them to diagnose and treat this disorder early and adequately by means of the clinical method. Relevant literature was reviewed and the latest medical advances in this field were presented(AU)
