INTRODUCTION: Renal artery stenosis is rarely associated with Conn adenoma.
CASE REPORT: We report a 27-year-old male patient who presented in 2001 with a severe high blood pressure associated with hypokaliemia. Radiologic investigations showed a left renal artery stenosis with agenesis of left kidney. A left nephrectomy was performed and blood pressure returned to normal with a single antihypertensive drug. Five years later, the patient again presented with severe high blood pressure. Laboratory studies revealed a low serum potassium level at 2.8 mmol/L associated with high urinary potassium excretion (84 mmol/24h) and a very high aldosterone/renin ratio (>462). Abdominal CT scan demonstrated a right adrenal mass. The patient underwent a right adrenalectomy (adenoma). Blood pressure returned to normal with a single antihypertensive. Serum potassium levels as well as aldosterone/renin ratio normalized.
CONCLUSION: We discussed whether the association between these two entities is merely fortuitous or conversely based on a causal relationship.
