Endocrine neoplasias and non-endocrine neoplasias associated with primary aldosteronism
Introduction:
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is the main cause of secondary arterial hypertension (AH) of endocrine origin (1). Clinical presentation may include resistance to treatment for AH, hypokalemia, with the autonomous secretion of aldosterone. Somatic mutations and epigenetic factors are the most frequent etiologies (2). Adrenal tumors may be a characteristic of MEN1 syndrome (3). Some case reports have associated endocrine neoplasms with PA; however, the real prevalence of this association is unknown (3).

Ectopic hormone secreting phaeochromocytoma: A francophone observational study
Introduction:
Ectopic hormone-secreting phaeochromocytomas are rare and only small reports of 1-2 cases exist in the literature. In the past, this condition has been linked with increased malignancy, familial syndromes and ACTH secretion.
