The left adrenal vein: An important direction for right adrenal venous sampling [PDF]

The Journal of Clinical Hypertension, 2023
This study aimed to evaluate the guiding role of left adrenal vein (LAV) for right adrenal venous sampling (AVS). A total of 347 patients who were diagnosed with primary aldosteronism (PA) and underwent successful AVS procedures from January 2020 to July

Evaluation of adrenal vein anatomy by adrenal venous sampling in patients with primary aldosteronism in Chinese [PDF]

The Journal of Clinical Hypertension
Accurate cannulation of the adrenal vein is challenging during adrenal venous sampling (AVS) because of the variations in adrenal vein anatomy. This study aimed to investigate the adrenal venous morphology in Chinese and improve the success rate of AVS ...

Adrenal Venous Sampling for Subtype Diagnosis of Primary Hyperaldosteronism [PDF]

Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2021
Adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is the key procedure for lateralization of primary hyperaldosteronism (PA) before surgery. Identification of the adrenal veins using computed tomography (CT) and intraoperative cortisol assay facilitates the success of ...

An Ancillary Method for Adrenal Venous Sampling in Cases in Which Right Adrenal Vein Sampling Is Difficult [PDF]

Diagnostics, 2023
Catheterization of the right adrenal vein (rt.AdV) to obtain blood samples can often be difficult. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether blood sampling from the inferior vena cava (IVC) at its juncture with the rt.AdV can be an ...

Adrenal venous sampling outcomes with and without mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists in primary aldosteronism. [PDF]

BMC Endocr Disord
Current guidelines recommend discontinuing mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRA) at least 4 weeks before adrenal venous sampling (AVS) in primary aldosteronism (PA) to avoid interference with the lateralization index (LI).

68 Ga-pentixafor PET/CT versus adrenal venous sampling in guiding surgical management for primary aldosteronism: a prospective cohort study on postoperative outcomes. [PDF]

Int J Surg
Background: Limitations still exist in the surgical strategies for primary aldosteronism (PA), the most common cause of secondary hypertension. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of 68Ga-pentixafor PET/CT versus adrenal venous sampling (AVS ...

Impact of Conducting Adrenal Venous Sampling in the Morning Versus Afternoon in Primary Aldosteronism. [PDF]

J Endocr Soc, 2023
Context Adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is the gold standard technique for subtype differentiation of primary aldosteronism (PA) and to obtain aldosterone and cortisol measurements; however, their secretion patterns show fluctuations during the day ...

Adrenal Venous Sampling [PDF]

Hypertension, 2011
In patients with primary aldosteronism, adrenal venous sampling is helpful to distinguish between unilateral and bilateral adrenal diseases. However, the procedure is technically challenging, and selective bilateral catheterization often fails. The aim of this analysis was to evaluate success rate in a retrospective analysis and compare data with ...
