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

Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry Outperforms Radioimmunoassay in Guiding Surgical Decisions Based on Adrenal Venous Sampling in Primary Aldosteronism [PDF]
Background Adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is essential for diagnosing unilateral aldosterone oversecretion in primary aldosteronism (PA). Traditionally, AVS relies on radioimmunoassay (RIA) to measure plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC), although RIA ...

Adrenal Venous Sampling for Catecholamines: A Normal Value Study [PDF]
Pheochromocytomas are rare, but potentially fatal, neoplasms. The diagnosis and localization of pheochromocytoma can be challenging, and recently there has been some debate regarding the role for adrenal venous sampling (AVS). The utility of AVS in this setting is hampered by a lack of normative value data for adrenal vein catecholamine concentrations ...

Preoperative supine time for adrenal venous sampling: a prospective randomized controlled trial [PDF]
Background Primary aldosteronism (P.A.) is the most common form of secondary hypertension, accounting for 5% of hypertensive patients and 17–23% of patients with resistant hypertension. Compared to primary hypertension, P.A. is more prone to cause severe

Should Adrenal Venous Sampling Be Performed in PA Patients Without Apparent Adrenal Tumors?
IntroductionSome aldosterone-producing micro-adenomas cannot be detected through image inspection. Therefore, adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is often performed, even in primary aldosteronism (PA) patients who have no apparent adrenal tumors (ATs) on ...

Subtyping of Primary Aldosteronism by Adrenal Venous Sampling.
Abstract Primary aldosteronism (PA), the most common cause of arterial hypertension, is surgically curable if a unilateral source of the hyperaldosteronism is discovered. To identify which patients are curable, all current guidelines recommend adrenal venous sampling (AVS), a procedure which, albeit simple in principle, remains scarcely ...
