Abstract
Context Adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) loading is used to increase the success rate of adrenal vein sampling (AVS). Objective We aimed to determine the effect of intraprocedural cortisol measurement (ICM) on ACTH-stimulated AVS (AS-AVS) owing to a lack of reliable data on this topic. Methods This multicenter, retrospective, observational study took place in 28 tertiary centers in Japan. Among 4057 patients enrolled, 2396 received both basal AVS (B-AVS) and AS-AVS and were divided into 2 groups according to whether ICM was used. The effect of ICM on AS-AVS was measured. Results In patients who underwent both AVS procedures, the ICM group had significantly higher success rates for both B-AVS and AS-AVS than the non-ICM group did. However, the probability of failure of AS-AVS after a successful B-AVS and the probability of success of AS-AVS after a failed B-AVS were not significantly different in the 2 groups. For subtype diagnosis, propensity-score matching revealed no significant difference between the 2 groups, and the discrepancy rate between B-AVS and AS-AVS for subtype diagnosis was also not significantly different. Conclusion ICM significantly increased the success rate of B-AVS and AS-AVS in protocols in which both AVS procedures were performed and had no effect on subtype diagnosis. However, in protocols in which both AVS procedures were performed, the results suggest ICM may not be necessary when performing AS-AVS if ICM is used only when B-AVS is performed. Our study suggests that ICM during AVS plays an important role and should be recommended.

Performance of the unilateral AV/IVC index in primary hyperaldosteronism subtype prediction: A validation study in a single tertiary centre. Clin Endocrinol (Oxf) 2020; 93:111-118.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Failure of cannulation of the right adrenal vein is frequent during AVS for investigation of primary aldosteronism (PA). The aldosterone:cortisol ratio of either adrenal vein compared with the inferior vena cava (AV/IVC index) has been proposed to differentiate between unilateral and bilateral disease, and aid in lateralization of unilateral disease. METHODS Sixty-two patients with unilateral or bilateral PA identified by either successful bilateral (45 patients) or unilateral (17 patients) adrenal vein cannulation, and with biochemical remission following surgery were enrolled into the analysis. The diagnostic performances of the previously identified AV/IVC index cut-offs of ≥5.5 to predict ipsilateral disease and ≤0.5 to predict contralateral disease were validated using data from the entire cohort. RESULTS Fifty-three patients had unilateral PA and 9 patients bilateral PA. The area under ROC curve (AUROC) of the AV/IVC cut-off ≤0.5 for identifying unilateral aldosterone secretion from the contralateral adrenal was 0.95 (95% CI; 0.88-0.99), whereas the AUROC of the AV/IVC cut-off ≥5.5 for identifying unilateral aldosterone secretion from ipsilateral adrenal was 0.96 (95% CI; 0.92-0.99). The AV/IVC index cut-off value of 0.5 had 93% sensitivity and 91% specificity, and the AV/IVC index cut-off value of 5.5 had 21% sensitivity and 100% specificity. The optimal AV/IVC cut-offs to achieve 100% specificity for our cohort were >2.4 and <0.1 to predict ipsilateral and contralateral disease. CONCLUSION Our data confirm that the AV/IVC index is a potential tool for subtype classification and lateralization in patients with PA in the setting of failed bilateral, but successful unilateral, adrenal vein cannulation during AVS.
