Brief Summary: The activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system RAAS plays a key role in uncontrolled hypertension or resistant hypertension Surgery and and medicine are the main treatment for primary aldosteronismPA by the current guidelines However only a small part of patients with PA meet the surgical criteria and most of patients with uncontrolled hypertension and activation of RAAS have to take spironolactone or other antihypertensive drugs for long time On the other side long-term inhibition of aldosterone receptor may cause hyperkalemia male breast hyperplasia and other adverse reactions Moreover hyperaldosterone is still not corrected by spironolactone which causes extensive cerebrovascular damages even though blood pressure and blood potassium had been normalized

With the development of adrenal vein sampling and adrenal ablation selective arterial ablation of adrenal glandAAA was observed with significant decrease of blood aldosterone and blood pressure in patients with PA which made it promising that uncontrolled hypertension could be relieved by selective AAA
