The causes of primary<unk>  are adrenal hyperplasia and adrenal adenoma (Conn's syndrome). These cause hyperplasia of aldosterone-producing cells of the adrenal cortex resulting in primary<unk> . The causes of secondary<unk>  are accessory renal veins, fibromuscular dysplasia, reninoma, renal tubular acidosis, nutcracker syndrome, ectopic tumors, massive ascites, left ventricular failure, and cor pulmonale. These act either by decreasing circulating fluid volume or by decreasing cardiac output, with resulting increase in renin release leading to secondary<unk> . Secondary<unk>  can also be caused by proximal renal tubular acidosis Secondary<unk>  can also be a symptom of genetic conditions Bartter's Syndrome and Gitelman's Syndrome.
