Comparative Analysis of Single-Path and Multipath Adrenal Venous Sampling in Primary Aldosteronism

Multipath AVS via the cubital vein and femoral vein improves the success rate of AVS with comparable safety compared to single-path AVS. When the RAV is opened in the III quadrant, the TIG catheter improves the cannulation success rate. The multipath AVS method provides more catheter options. Patients diagnosed with PA at the First Hospital of Fujian Medical University from December 2019 to December 2021 were included. The collection of medical records of the included population was approved by the ethics committee (approval number: 2021 311). This was a cross-sectional study in which some patients were treated surgically and some were treated with superselective adrenal artery embolization (SAAE). We conducted a cohort study of patients treated with SAAE. ClinicalTrials.gov Protocol Registration and Results System (PRS) receipt release date: January 11, 2022.
