Clinical Management and Outcomes of Adrenal Hemorrhage Following Adrenal Vein Sampling in Primary Aldosteronism.
Aldosterone-producing adenoma and bilateral adrenal hyperplasia account for >90% of all primary aldosteronism cases. Distinguishing between bilateral and unilateral disease is of fundamental importance because it allows targeted therapy. Adrenal vein sampling (AVS) is the only reliable means to preoperatively differentiate between unilateral and bilateral subtypes. A rare but serious complicati...
متن کاملPersistent Primary Aldosteronism Despite Iatrogenic Adrenal Hemorrhage After Adrenal Vein Sampling
Before surgery for primary aldosteronism (PA), localization is evaluated with adrenal vein sampling (AVS). A 56-year-old Japanese woman had a right adrenal mass, hypokalemia, and a high aldosterone/renin ratio. Stress tests confirmed the diagnosis of PA. Subsequently, preoperative AVS was performed and right adrenal hemorrhage (AH) occurred unexpectedly. Because hypertension persisted, laparosc...
متن کاملImpact of accessory hepatic veins on adrenal vein sampling for identification of surgically curable primary aldosteronism.
Adrenal vein sampling is the gold standard for identification of surgically curable primary aldosteronism, but its accuracy might be hindered by blood dilution from accessory vein blood. We prospectively investigated the presence of accessory veins draining into adrenal veins and their effect on the selectivity index (SI) in 74 consecutive patients undergoing adrenal vein sampling. On the right...
متن کاملAn expert consensus statement on use of adrenal vein sampling for the subtyping of primary aldosteronism.
Adrenal venous sampling is recommended by current guidelines to identify surgically curable causes of hyperaldosteronism but remains markedly underused. Key factors contributing to the poor use of adrenal venous sampling include the prevailing perceptions that it is a technically challenging procedure, difficult to interpret, and can be complicated by adrenal vein rupture. In addition, the lack...
متن کاملA Case of Adrenal Vein Sampling in Primary Aldosteronism With Homolateral Suppression
Context Adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is regarded as the gold standard for diagnosis of primary aldosteronism (PA) subtypes, although some authors have questioned its diagnostic accuracy and highlighted the lack of standardized procedure protocols and interpretation criteria for AVS. In particular, the usefulness of cosyntropin stimulation and benefit of superselective adrenal vein catheterizat...
