SUMMARY 1 There are two types of familial hyperaldosteronism (FH): FH‐I and FH‐II. FH‐I
is caused by a hybrid CYP11B1/CYP11B2 gene mutation. The genetic cause of FH‐II, which …

Aldosterone, the major circulating mineralocorticoid, particiates in blood volume and serum
potassium homeostasis. Primary aldosteronism is a disorder characterized by hypertension …

Recent studies have indicated that as much as 5–10% of hypertension may be attributable
to primary aldosteronism (PAL), and most patients lack hypokalaemia. 1 Familial …

Background Familial hyperaldosteronism type II (FH-II) is characterized by the familial
occurrence of primary aldosteronism; unlike FH-I, it is not glucocorticoid-remediable and not …

Familial hyperaldosteronism type II (FH-II) is characterized by autosomal dominant
inheritance and hypersecretion of aldosterone due to adrenocortical hyperplasia or an …

Familial hyperaldosteronism type II (FH-II) is caused by adrenocortical hyperplasia or
aldosteronoma or both and is frequently transmitted in an autosomal dominant fashion …

Familial hyperaldosteronism type II (FH-II) is an inherited form of hyperaldosteronism
associated with hypertension in most patients. The mutations that cause FH-II are unknown …

Summary objective Familial hyperaldosteronism type II (FH‐II) is characterized by
inheritance of primary aldosteronism (PAL) but, unlike FH‐I, is not glucocorticoid remediable …

The genetic basis of a familial form of primary aldosteronism, that is glucocorticoid-
remediable aldosteronism (GRA) or familial hyperaldosteronism type I (FH-I), has been …

Abstract Pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1 (PHA1) is an uncommon inherited disorder
characterized by salt-wasting in infancy arising from target organ unresponsiveness to …
