        Background: Primary hyperaldosteronism (PHA) is a syndrome arising from autonomous aldosterone secretion from the adrenal gland and suppression of plasma renin activity. PHA is usually seen due to unilateral adenoma or bilateral hyperplasia. We present a case of Conn`s syndrome with bilateral adrenal lesions but unilateral functioning adenoma. Methods: A 43 years old female admitted to the emergency service due to inability to walk for 3 days, fatigue and generalised pain. She had a history of diabetes mellitus and hypertension for 15 years. She was receiving angiotensin receptor blocker with thiazide, calcium channel blocker, beta-blocker and insulin treatment. Her blood tests revealed alkalosis and severe hypokalemia with normal renal function. In the examinations for the causes of secondary hypertension; 24-hour urinary cortisol, metanephrine, normetanephrine and VMA levels were normal. Results: After cessation of diuretic treatment plasma renin activity (PRA) was measured 0.17 ng / mL/ h while plasma aldosterone level (PAL) was measured 71 ng / dl. The ratio of PAL / PRA was very high. Her abdominal MRI revealed bilateral adrenal lesions with 23x14 mm and 12x8 mm in diameters in the right and left adrenal gland respectively compatible with adenoma. On the other hand adrenal venous sampling (AVS) showed lateralisation for the right side. Conclusions: Most common causes of PHA are unilateral aldosterone secreting adenoma and bilateral adrenal hyperplasia. Although the appearance of bilateral adrenal lesions in MRI in our case, results of AVS were compatible with autonomous aldosteron production on the right side. According to these findings we accepted the case as a unilateral functioning adenoma with an incidentaloma on the other side.
