Needle vs knife: trial tests quick heat zap to cure dangerous high blood pressure

NCT ID NCT05405101

Summary

This study is testing whether a minimally invasive heat treatment (thermal ablation) works as well as surgery to cure a specific hormone disorder that causes severe high blood pressure. Researchers will compare the two procedures in 122 patients who have the condition in one adrenal gland. The goal is to see if the quicker, less invasive heat treatment can provide the same cure rates and safety as traditional surgery.
