Pitfalls in the diagnosis and treatment of a hypertensive patient with unilateral primary aldosteronism and contralateral pheochromocytoma: a case report.

We report an extremely rare case of concomitant unilateral PA and contralateral pheochromocytoma. When diagnosing unilateral PA by AVS, especially in cases with a lipid-poor adrenal mass, clinicians should rule out the possibility of the presence of pheochromocytoma before proceeding to undergo unilateral adrenalectomy. Although there is no standard treatment for this rare condition, it is essential to select personalized treatment from the perspective of conserving the adrenal gland.
