Abstract
Hitherto unrecorded atrophic changes are described in the zona glomerulosa of both adrenals from a patient with a unilateral cortical adenoma. It is suggested that the adenoma was secreting aldoste rone at approximately the correct physiological rate permitting the ipsilateral and contralateral zona glomerulosa to atrophy without causing clinical adrenocortical disease.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
