The study aims to assess the effect of superselective adrenal arterial embolization on ventricular remodeling in primary aldosteronism without lateralized aldosterone secretion by comparing it with spironolactone therapy.
After being informed about the study and potential risks,all patients giving written informedconsent will undergo a 2-week screening period to determine eligibility for study entry.Atweek 0,patients who meet the eligibility requirements will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to Superselective adrenal arterial embolization group or spironolactone therapy group.

Superselective adrenal arterial embolization is an operation to inject embolic agent into adrenal artery through catheter to embolize part of adrenal gland, so as to reduce the secretion of adrenal hormone and reduce blood pressure.
Aldosterone receptor antagonists are recommended by guidelines for the treatment of bilateral primary aldosteronism.
