PRIMARY HYPERALDOSTERONISM (CONN’S SYNDROME); OUR RESULTS OF LAPAROSCOPIC SURGICAL TREATMENT.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to evaluate the results of laparoscopic surgery on cases of Primary Hyperaldosteronism (PHA) treated at the Department of General Surgery at Dursun Odabaş Medical Center, Yüzüncü Yıl University. Five patients diagnosed with PHA underwent unilateral laparoscopic transperitoneal adrenolectomy at Yüzüncü Yıl University Department of General Surgery between 2011 and 2015. Their medical records were examined retrospectively for changes in blood pressure and potassium levels. The study comprised 5 patients, all female, with a mean age of 42 years (ranging from 35 to 67). All patients presented with hypertension and hypokalemia, requiring medication. None of the cases were converted to open surgery. The mean postoperative stay was 3.2 days (ranging from 1 to 6 days). No postoperative complications were observed and all patients were discharged from the hospital without incident. All patients became normotensive and normokalemic after laparoscopic surgical treatment. PHA should be considered in cases where blood pressure cannot be controlled in spite of antihypertensive treatment. Laparoscopic adrenalectomy is a safe and efficient treatment option but should be performed before permanent damage is incurred.
