High aldosterone levels in the renal capsular vein from the left aldosterone-producing adenoma on adrenal venous sampling [PDF]
A 42-year-old female patient was referred to our hospital with hypertension and hypokalemia and was diagnosed with primary aldosteronism. Dynamic contrast-enhanced computed tomography images revealed a 13-mm nodule on the lateral segment of the left ...

Application value of adrenal venous sampling in the surgical treatment of primary aldosteronism. [PDF]
The diagnosis of primary aldosteronism (PA) is critical for determining treatment strategies. The aim of the present study was to investigate the clinical value of preoperative adrenal venous sampling (AVS) for determining the benefit of PA surgery ...

HCG-responsive aldosteronoma with transient secretion during pregnancy confirmed through HCG-stimulated adrenal venous sampling. [PDF]
Primary aldosteronism can be regulated by the ectopic expression of G-protein coupled receptors in aldosteronomas or bilateral hyperplasias. We report a rare case of a young woman in whom 2 pregnancies were complicated by pre-eclampsia and 1 miscarriage.

Success Rate of Adrenal Venous Sampling and the Location of Right Adrenal Vein Orifice: A Retrospective Study [PDF]
Adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is the gold standard for identifying aldosterone‐producing adenoma and bilateral adrenal hyperplasia. This study reports the success rate of AVS and the distribution characteristics of the right adrenal vein orifice (RAVO ...

Impact of Cortisol-Cosecretion on Adrenal Venous Sampling Results in Primary Aldosteronism: Study of 225 Cases. [PDF]
Background/Objectives: Mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS) can coexist with primary aldosteronism (PA). The purpose of our study was to evaluate whether (MACS) influences parameters analyzed during adrenal venous sampling (AVS) in patients with PA.

Pre-procedural and intra-procedural computerized tomography: providing a roadmap for successful adrenal venous sampling procedures. [PDF]
Adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is used for the diagnosis of primary hyperaldosteronism. Technical difficulties with right adrenal vein (RAV) catheterization can lead to erroneous results.

Adrenal venous sampling in primary aldosteronism: Single-centre experience from Western India [PDF]
Introduction: The protocols and criteria used for adrenal venous sampling (AVS) differ across centres. There are no studies from the Indian subcontinent describing AVS-based outcomes in primary aldosteronism (PA). We aim to describe our experience from a
