Resumen:

The paper presents the case of a fema/e patientwho carried an aldosterone-secreting tumor of adrenal cortex. In the ana/ysis of diagnosis and parac/inical examinations there is particular referenceto the /aparoscopic surgery mode of treatment.Diagnosis should be estab/ished on the basis ofclinica/ and laboratory tests (hypopotassemia andhypera/dosteronism).Tumor topography was confirmed through CT sean,MRI and Scintiscan in left adrenal cortex. Resectionwas consequently made through /aparoscopicsurgery. The patient's evo/ution was excel/ent fromthe surgica/ viewpoint, with / /e veis of b/ood pressure,potassium and a/dosterone returned to normal.
