초록

PA는 전체 고혈압 환자의 10% 내외로 추정되며 완치가가능한 고혈압의 가장 흔한 원인이다. 앞에서 살펴본 내용을중심으로 진단 및 치료에 대한 알고리듬을 그림 1에서 제시하였다. 진단을 위해서는 ARR의 증가와 후속적인 알도스테론 억제 검사가 요구된다. 원인 질환의 감별은 치료를 위해필수적이며 부신 CT가 진단에 제한점이 있으므로 수술을 고려하는 환자들에서 부신 정맥 채혈이 추천된다. APA의 치료로는 일측성 복강경 부신절제술이 적절하며 약물학적 치료로 MRA의 사용이 추천된다.

Abstract

Primary aldosteronism (PA) is characterized by inappropriately high production of aldosterone relatively autonomous from the renin-angiotensin system and no suppression by sodium loading. The prevalence of PA is estimated more than 10% among nonseleted hypertensive patients. PA is clinically very important since patients with PA have higher cardiovascular morbidity and mortality than age- and sex-matched patients with essential hypertension and the same degree of blood pressure elevation. The ratio of plasma aldosterone concentration to plasma renin activity (ARR) has been generally accepted as a first-line screening test. ARR might be affected by patient age, anti-hypertensive drugs, posture and menstrual cycles. Once the ARR is measured, confirmative test should be performed. Although a gold standard confirmative test for PA is not yet identified, intravenous saline loading test is widely used. Adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is a gold standard for differentiation of unilateral from bilateral forms of PA. Since adrenal CT imaging has limitations to accurate diagnosis of PA, AVS is recommended for all patients who wish to pursue surgical treatment. Although unilateral laparoscopic adernalectomy is the optimal treatment for patients with aldosterone producing adenoma or unilateral hyperplasia, strong evidence linking adernalectomy with improved quality of life, morbidity or mortality is not available. Mneralocorticoid receptor antagonists, spironolactone or eplerenone, are recommended for pharmacologic therapy of PA. (Korean J Med 2012;82:396-402)
