Primary aldosteronism due to Conn adenoma
A type of primary hyperaldosteronism resulting from a benign neoplasm of the adrenal gland. The adrenal neoplasm increases production of aldosterone. Excess aldosterone causes the kidneys to retain more salt than usual resulting in increases in body fluid levels and blood pressure. The disease is caused by mutations in one of several genes. The most commonly mutated gene is KCNJ5, accounting for an estimated 40 percent of the neoplasms, followed by the CACNA1D and ATP1A1 genes. Changes in other genes cause a small percentage of cases with additional unidentified genes involved in the condition. The disease is generally not inherited but may arise from a mutation occurring after conception.
