title: [Diagnosis, surgical treatment and prognosis in endocrine hypertension of adrenal origin].
abstract: 162 patients with adrenal hypertension have been examined. 48 of them had Cushing's syndrome, 10--aldosteromas, 85 --icenko--Cushing disease. The examination of patients with endocrine hypertension included hormonal background study, computer and MR tomography thin-needle biopsy and made it possible to make valid clinical and topical diagnosis in all cases. Magnetic-resonance tomography appeared to be the most efficient diagnostic method in the syndrome of hypercorticoidism. Ultrasound examination is the most available and highly informative method of revealing hormonally active adrenal tumors when they are more than 1 cm in size. An adequate preoperative preparation equally with an optimal scope of surgery and efficient postoperative substitution hormonal therapy are key factors in treatment of endocrine adrenal hypertension.
