Key result
Timely primary aldosteronism treatment cures hypertension, but adrenal vein sampling remains a technical bottleneck.
Why the study?
Primary aldosteronism is a common but frequently overlooked cause of arterial hypertension and cardiovascular events, and early screening is needed because subtyping with adrenal vein sampling currently represents a bottleneck.

Simplified PA screening may aid select hypertensives with AF risk; leaves open prospective validation before practice change.
Timely diagnosis and subtyping of primary aldosteronism are essential for curing hyperaldosteronism and resistant hypertension, though adrenal vein sampling remains a technical bottleneck.
Gian Paolo Rossi (2019) conducted a review in Primary aldosteronism. Timely diagnosis and treatment of primary aldosteronism can cure hypertension, though adrenal vein sampling remains a technically challenging bottleneck for identifying surgically curable cases.
