  • Title: Long-term medical management of aldosterone-producing adenoma.
    Author: Bornemann M.
    Journal: South Med J; 1990 Apr; 83(4):461-2. PubMed ID: 2108504.
    Abstract:
    This case of Conn's syndrome demonstrates long-term (seven years) efficacy of triamterene-thiazide therapy in controlling both hypertension and hypokalemia. Studies done before the adrenal tumor was removed surgically showed that the tumor had increased in size and function since the first studies were done before triamterene-thiazide therapy. The resolution of hypertension after nine years of hyperaldosteronism suggests that surgery is effective even after chronic hyperaldosteronism has been present for some time.
