ABSTRACT

The singular therapeutic opportunity to obtain the cure for surgical means offers a precise diagnosis of endocrine hypertension to the clinical professional, or to achieve a significant answer to the pharmacological treatment. The primary hyperaldosteronism and the phaeochromocytoma are infrequent causes of hypertension of endocrine origin, which is why in many instances they slip by or are badly diagnosed like essential or idiopathic hypertension. From there the importance that review the knowledge of the clinical picture forms of presentation, etiology and physiopathology. The metabolic alkalosis and hypopotassemia picked up in the present case do not constitute the phaeochromocytoma's typical manifestations, but of the primary hyperaldosteronism; once of whom was done they do not yield precedents in the looked up literature, that must be taken into consideration for future investigations.
