Overview
Differebtiating Conn's Syndrome From Other Diseases
Conn's syndrome should be differentiated from other diseases causing hypertension and hypokalemia for example:
- Renal artery stenosis
- Cushing's syndrome
- Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH)
- Liddle's syndrome
- Diuretic use
- Licorice ingestion
- Renin-secreting tumors
