Benefits of adrenal venous sampling with preoperative four-dimensional CT imaging

Acta Radiologica, 2022
Background The effects of adrenal venous sampling (AVS) may be limited by the anatomical variants of adrenal veins. Purpose To investigate the benefits of AVS for patients who underwent four-dimensional computed tomography (4D CT) before AVS.

Evaluating the value of chemokine receptor type 4-targeted PET imaging in diagnosing primary aldosteronism lateralization: A comparison with adrenal venous sampling.

Surgery
BACKGROUND Primary aldosteronism lateralization is critical for the treatment option. This study evaluated the preoperative localization diagnostic efficiency of 68Ga-pentixafor positron emission tomography/computed tomography imaging, targeting C-X-C ...

Improving adrenal venous sampling in primary aldosteronism

Expert Review of Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2012
Primary aldosteronism is the most frequent cause of secondary arterial hypertension. As adrenal imaging has been shown to have only limited value for differential diagnosis, adrenal vein sampling (AVS) has been implemented as a gold standard in the guidelines.

Distinguishing Unilateral from Bilateral Primary Aldosteronism: The Reliability of the Posture Test and the Success Rate of Adrenal Venous Sampling in Iceland

Hormone and Metabolic Research
Primary aldosteronism is a common cause of hypertension. Distinguishing between unilateral and bilateral primary aldosteronism is mandatory and remains a challenge.

Role for adrenal venous sampling in primary aldosteronism

Surgery, 2004
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of adrenal venous sampling (AVS) on the management of patients with primary aldosteronism.From September 1990 through October 2003, 203 patients with primary aldosteronism (mean age, 53 years; range, 17-80; 163 men) were selected prospectively for AVS on the basis of degree of aldosterone excess, age ...

Adrenal Venous Sampling Using Metanephrine in Primary Aldosteronism With or Without Cortisol Co-Secretion.

Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism
CONTEXT The role of plasma metanephrine in adrenal venous sampling (AVS) for assessing lateralization in primary aldosteronism (PA) requires further clarification.

Adrenal Venous Sampling

2009
Interventional radiology has become a major tool in the localization of endocrine tumours. Inferior petrosal sinus sampling for patients with Cushing’s disease, selective parathyroid venous sampling for patients with persistent hyperparathyroidism, hepatic venous sampling with arterial stimulation for patients with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours and

Update in adrenal venous sampling for primary aldosteronism

Current Opinion in Endocrinology, Diabetes & Obesity, 2018
Purpose of review Current guidelines recommend adrenal venous sampling (AVS) to identify the surgically curable causes of hyperaldosteronism. In contrast with this recommendation, AVS remains markedly underutilized in clinical practice, which leads to deny curative adrenalectomy, to many patients with primary aldosteronism. The

Comparison of the Central Adrenal Vein and the Common Trunk of the Left Adrenal Vein for Adrenal Venous Sampling

Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2013
To compare left adrenal venous sampling (AVS) in two locations: the central adrenal vein and the common trunk.A total of 22 patients (12 men and 10 women; mean age, 50 y; range, 26-65 y) who were suspected of having primary aldosteronism (PA) and underwent successful AVS with cortisol concentration measurement and/or venography between November 2010 ...
