Abstract
A case of unilateral primary adrenal hyperplasia, without concomitant hypokalemia, is presented. After surgical removal of the gland, a complete remission occurred. This rare condition may, in fact, be more frequent than thought as it can coexist with normokalemia. We postulate that it is probably a new phase of the transformation between hyperplasia and adenomas that can also occur in the adrenal cortex similar to such transformations in other endocrine organs.Keywords
