Conn's syndrome, also known as primary hyperaldosteronism, is a condition characterized by excessive production of the hormone aldosterone from the adrenal glands. This overproduction often leads to hypertension (high blood pressure) and low levels of potassium in the blood. The condition can be caused by an adrenal adenoma (a benign tumor) or adrenal hyperplasia. Treatment typically involves medication to control blood pressure and potassium levels, or surgery to remove the tumor if present.
