Abstract:
Primary aldosteronism (PA) mainly includes aldosteronoma (APA) and idiopathic aldosteronism (IHA). APA often presents as unilateral adrenal nodules, but can also be accompanied by non-functional adrenal nodules, which leads to difficulty of the identification. In this paper, the clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment process of two cases of PA with non-functional adrenal nodules were analyzed and discussed to provide some references for the accurate diagnosis and treatment of PA.
