Cardiovascular complications are increased in a large group of patients with primary aldosteronism (PA). The complications of primary hyperaldosteronism include coronary artery disease, arrhythmias, myocardial infarction, left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), and cerebrovascular disease. We report here a case of PA, a 52-year-old female presented with symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, who had hypertension and LVH in echocardiographic examination.Keywords: Hyperaldosteronism; atrial fibrillationTurkiye Klinikleri J Cardiovasc Sci 2007, 19:197-200
