Mineralocorticoid hypertension, including Conn's syndrome, occurs significantly more frequently than is recognized. Despite modern diagnostic capabilities and the availability of treatment methods, it cannot be diagnosed simply because (they) know little about it. Recall clinico-pathological variants of mineralocorticoid hypertension and the peculiarities of their management. Here is a fairly typical clinical case Conn's syndrome, recognized for many years later than it needed to be done. Pay attention to the fact that mineralocorticoid hypertension should be considered in patients with resistant nature of the response to treatment.
