Use of plasma metanephrine to aid adrenal venous sampling in combined aldosterone and cortisol over-secretion

In patients with primary aldosteronism (PA) undergoing adrenal venous sampling (AVS), cortisol levels are measured to assess lateralization of aldosterone overproduction. Concomitant adrenal autonomous cortisol and aldosterone secretion therefore have the potential to confound AVS results. We descri...
