European multicentre study on outcome of surgery for sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism

open access: yesBJS (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.

Utility of carbon dioxide venography and intraprocedural computed tomography for adrenal venous sampling in patients with an allergy to iodinated contrast media.

open access: yesJournal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2023
PURPOSE This study aimed to assess the diagnostic performance of carbon dioxide (CO2) and intraprocedural unenhanced computed tomography (IPCT) for adrenal venous sampling (AVS) (CO2-IPCT-AVS) in patients with primary aldosteronism (PA) and a history of ...

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

open access: yesBMC 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 ...

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

open access: yesBMC 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.

Utility of right adrenal signature veins in venous sampling for primary aldosteronism

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine, 2023
Background This study aimed to identify the appropriate signature veins for the right adrenal gland using a 3D model fused with adrenal venography images and to verify their accuracy through the selectivity index (SI) >2.Methods We analyzed the right ...

Role of adrenal venous sampling in the differential diagnosis and treatment protocol of ACTH-independent Cushing’s syndrome with bilateral adrenal lesions

open access: yesEndocrine, 2023
The diagnosis and management of adrenocorticotropic hormone-independent Cushing’s syndrome (AICS) with bilateral adrenal lesions remain challenging. Some studies have explored the value of adrenal vein sampling (AVS) in patients with AICS; however, more ...

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

open access: yesCardioVascular 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.

Primary hyperaldosteronism: challenges in subtype classification

open access: yesBMC 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]

open access: yesRadiology, 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 ...
