BACKGROUND: Primary aldosteronism (PA) is frequently caused by a unilateral aldosterone-producing adenoma with a PA-driver mutation. Unilateral adrenalectomy has a high probability of short-term biochemical remission, but long-term postsurgical outcomes are relatively undefined. Our objective was to investigate the incidence of long-term recurrence of PA in individuals with postsurgical short-term biochemical remission. METHODS: Adrenalectomized patients for unilateral PA were included from a single referral center. Histopathology and outcomes were assessed according to international histopathology of unilateral primary aldosteronism and PASO (Primary Aldosteronism Surgical Outcome) consensuses. Genotyping was performed using CYP11B2 (aldosterone synthase)-guided sequencing. RESULTS: Classical adrenal histopathology, exemplified by a solitary aldosterone-producing adenoma, was observed in 78% of 90 adrenals, compared with 22% with nonclassical histopathology. The classical group displayed higher aldosterone-to-renin ratios (P =0.013) and lower contralateral ratios (P =0.008). Outcome assessments at both short (12 months [7; 12]) and long (89 months [48; 124]) terms were available for 57 patients. At short-term assessment, 53 (93%) displayed complete biochemical success (43 classical and 10 nonclassical), but long-term assessment demonstrated biochemical PA recurrence in 12 (23%) with an overrepresentation of the nonclassical histopathology (6 [60%] of 10 nonclassical histopathology versus 6 [14%] of 43 classical histopathology; P =0.005). PA-driver mutations were identified in 97% of 64 aldosterone-producing adenomas; there was no association of the aldosterone-producing adenoma genotype with PA recurrence. CONCLUSIONS: A substantial proportion of individuals display postsurgical biochemical recurrence of PA, which is related to the histopathology of the resected adrenal gland. These findings emphasize the role of histopathology and the requirement for continued outcome assessment in the management of surgically treated patients for PA. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
