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

Adrenal venous sampling: cosyntropin stimulation or not? [PDF]
Notwithstanding the high prevalence of primary aldosteronism (PA), probably the most common form of secondary hypertension, the diagnosis of PA is often neglected or delayed, thus precluding target treatment, which is curative in many cases. For selection of the most appropriate treatment, a fundamental step is the distinction between a lateralized ...

Contribution of liver nerves, glucagon, and adrenaline to the glycaemic response to exercise in rats [PDF]
The contribution of hepatic sympathetic innervation, glucagon and adrenaline to the glycaemic response to exercise was investigated in rats. Hepatically denervated (LDX) or sham operated (SHAM) rats with permanent catheters were therefore submitted to ...

Adrenal Venous Sampling in Primary Hyperaldosteronism [PDF]
Adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is used to distinguish unilateral from bilateral aldosterone hypersecretion as a cause of primary hyperaldosteronism (PHA). This distinction is critical because unilateral disease is treated, and often cured, by adrenalectomy, whereas bilateral hypersecretion should be managed medically.

Monitoring cortisol replacement therapy in congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) patients is vital to avoid serious adverse events such as adrenal crises due to cortisol underexposure or metabolic consequences due to cortisol overexposure.

Diagnostic criteria for adrenal venous sampling
Primary aldosteronism accounts for 3 to 5% of all hypertension cases. Unilateral aldosterone hypersecretion can be treated with adrenalectomy. Guidelines for primary aldosteronism management recommend adrenal vein sampling (AVS) to ascertain unilateral primary aldosteronism before surgery.

Despite being an established method to identify the unilateral subtype of primary aldosteronism with an indication of adrenalectomy, adrenal venous sampling sometimes fails primarily due to unsuccessful cannulation to adrenal veins.
