Long-term Blood Pressure Outcome After Unilateral Adrenalectomy for Primary Hyperaldosteronism

Completed
Conditions
Adrenalectomy; Status
Registration Number
NCT03648294
Lead Sponsor
Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens
Brief Summary

To evaluate long-term results of adrenalectomy for primary aldosteronism (PA) and to identify prognostic factors associated.

Exhaustive retrospective review of all consecutive patients undergoing adrenalectomy for PA between 2002 and 2013 in our department. All patients underwent preoperative: clinical evaluation (age, sex, height, weight, systolic and diastolic BP under treatment, identification of anti-hypertension treatment), biological evaluation (potassium, renin, aldosterone) and radiological evaluation (CT and/or MRI). Blood pressure was assessed postoperatively at 1 month, 1 year, then at the date of the latest news. The patients were classified into three categories: cured (no antihypertensive therapy in postoperative associated with strictly lower blood pressures of 140/90mmHg), improved (decreased number of drugs or number unchanged but with better blood pressure control), and refractory (no change in the number of drug and blood pressure, or deterioration of one or other of these two parameters).
