ABSTRACT
Primary aldosteronism is a common cause of endocrine hypertension. Aldosterone-producing adenoma and bilateral idiopathic hyperplasia are the two major subtypes of primary aldosteronism. Unilateral adrenal hyperplasia as one of the rare subtypes was seldom reported. Herein, we present in detail a patient with unilateral adrenal hyperplasia difficult to be subtyped. By discussing several key points of the diagnosis and treatment process, some useful experiences and information are provided for the clinicians.
