A case of primary aldosteronism with a negative aldosterone-to-renin ratio

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2021
Background Primary aldosteronism (PA), as a cause of secondary hypertension, can cause more serious cardiovascular damage than essential hypertension. The aldosterone-to-renin ratio (ARR) is recommended as the most reliable screening method for PA, but ...

First‐Line Osimertinib in Patients with EGFR‐Mutant Advanced Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer: Outcome and Safety in the Real World: FLOWER Study

The Oncologist, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Lessons Learned Osimertinib has confirmed effectiveness in this real‐world population of patients with EGFR‐mutant advanced non‐small cell lung cancer. Thromboembolic events occur more frequently than previously reported, suggesting a thrombotic diathesis that requires further investigation. Patients with at least three metastatic sites, brain

Techniques in adrenal vein sampling: Multipurpose catheter shape facilitates sampling of cranially oriented right adrenal veins [PDF]

, 2022
Adrenal vein sampling (AVS) failure is often attributed to difficulty sampling the right adrenal vein (RAV). Normally, the RAV is caudally oriented, however, cranial orientation of the RAV is not uncommon.

Left adrenal aldosteronism coexisting with left paraaortic paraganglioma presenting as bilateral adrenal and left paraaortic tumors– comprehensive adrenal evaluation aiding perfect management: a case report

BMC Endocrine Disorders, 2022
Background Coexistence of a catecholamine-secreting tumor and an adrenal cortical tumor is quite rare which makes both diagnosis and management challenging.

Adrenal venous sampling: the learning curve of a single interventionalist with 282 consecutive procedures [PDF]

, 2018
PURPOSE:Primary aldosteronism (PA) is a common cause of secondary hypertension. Adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is the gold standard for assessing laterality of PA, which is of paramount importance to decide adequate treatment.

Adrenal Venous Sampling: Where Is the Aldosterone Disappearing to? [PDF]

CardioVascular and Interventional Radiology, 2009
Adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is generally considered to be the gold standard in distinguishing unilateral and bilateral aldosterone hypersecretion in primary hyperaldosteronism. However, during AVS, we noticed a considerable variability in aldosterone concentrations among samples thought to have come from the right adrenal glands.

European multicentre study on outcome of surgery for sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
Some 5861 patients undergoing first‐time surgery for sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism were registered in the Eurocrine® database between 2015 and 2018. The use of intraoperative parathyroid hormone measurement decreased the risk of conversion and persistent hypercalcaemia.

Primary hyperaldosteronism: challenges in subtype classification

BMC Research Notes, 2012
Background Primary hyperaldosteronism (PA) is a serious and potentially debilitating disease. Detailed guidelines have been written to guide endocrinologists in establishing the diagnosis of PA as well as in subtype classification of PA. The objective of

Intra-adrenal Aldosterone Secretion: Segmental Adrenal Venous Sampling for Localization [PDF]

Radiology, 2016
To use segmental adrenal venous sampling (AVS) (S-AVS) of effluent tributaries (a version of AVS that, in addition to helping identify aldosterone hypersecretion, also enables the evaluation of intra-adrenal hormone distribution) to detect and localize intra-adrenal aldosterone secretion.The institutional review board approved this study, and all ...

The role of adrenal venous sampling in the surgical management of primary aldosteronism

, 2006
Objective: Primary aldosteronism is the most common endocrine form of secondary hypertension, but no single test or imaging method always identifies it.
