Pregnancy complicated by primary aldosteronism.

J C Webb1, P Bayliss.   

Abstract

Pregnancy is rarely complicated by aldosteronism. We report the case of a 32-year-old woman who became pregnant soon after primary aldosteronism was diagnosed. Only antihypertensive medication and oral potassium supplementation were required in addition to routine prenatal care. A healthy female infant was delivered at term. In this case, no adrenal adenoma was identified. We discuss management of aldosteronism in pregnancy and review the literature.
