Purpose: Adrenal vein sampling (AVS) is the gold standard method for subtyping primary aldosteronism (PA). A certain number of PA patients had unilateral successful AVS, concomitant autonomous cortisol secretion or indeterminate lateralization index (LI 2.5–4), which made correct interpretation of AVS data impossible. The aim of our study was to determine whether absolute aldosterone concentration can predict the subtype of PA in patients with inconclusive AVS data.<p...
