Preoperative masked renal damage in Japanese patients with primary aldosteronism: Identification of predictors for chronic kidney disease manifested after adrenalectomy

Abstract: Abbreviations & Acronyms APA = aldosterone-producing adenoma BMI = body mass index BP = blood pressure CKD = chronic kidney disease eGFR = estimated glomerular filtration rate EH = essential hypertension FBGL = fasting blood glucose level GFR = glomerular filtration rate IHA = idiopathic hyperaldosteronism mo = months PA = primary aldosteronism PAC = plasma aldosterone concentration PRA = plasma renin activity Postop. = postoperative Preop. = preoperative SD = standard deviation TC = total cholesterol TG = tri… Show more

“…Adrenalectomies were performed in 8 patients (6,7,23-26) and anti-aldosterone drugs were administered to the other 4 cases (22,23,27). Worsening of kidney function following adrenalectomy for PA has been reported (23); the cause may be the correction of glomerular hyperfiltration once aldosterone levels have been stabilized (3)(4)(5). Therefore, overestimated kidney function due to glomerular hyperfiltration was canceled out, which led to an accurate kidney function.…”

“…Among cases of hypertension, Utsumi et al (3) reported that 6-11% are secondary to PA, although prevalence varies worldwide. The pathogenesis of PA is excess secretion of aldosterone from bilateral or unilateral adrenal gland or tumors (3). The early discovery and treatment of PA is a crucial clinical issue to prevent progression of atherosclerosis.…”

“…40 They are most marked in patients with unilateral PA 41,42 and are reversed within one month of adrenalectomy (Figure 1). 40,[43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55] Hemodynamic stress and hyperaldosteronism per se lead to chronic structural damage in the long run. 45,56 PA patients have been reported to display a certain level of insulin resistance, which may improve after adrenalectomy.…”

“…Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist treatment and potassium supplements should be discontinued immediately after surgery and serum potassium concentrations should be monitored closely. 25  Adrenalectomy also unmasks postoperative eGFR below 60 ml/min/1.73m² in 30% to 40% of patients with unilateral PA. 52,54,55 It is more likely in patients who have a preoperative eGFR that is already close to this threshold. 54 Drug-based treatment  The pharmacokinetics of spironolactone and eplerenone are unaffected in patients with CKD.…”
