AB  - Primary aldosteronism (PA) with synchronous carcinoid syndrome is extremely rare 
      occurrence. In this article, we describe a case of PA due to adrenocortical 
      adenoma ("aldosteronoma") and concurrent malignant carcinoid tumor of ileum. The 
      patient was treated with synchronous right adrenalectomy and resection of the 
      ileum. This case is an example of concomitant presence of two types of tumors, 
      effectively managed surgically. We report a case of a nonclassical form of 
      multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN 1) syndrome.
