Single-center Outcome of Laparoscopic Unilateral Adrenalectomy for Patients With Primary Aldosteronism: Lateralizing Disease Using Results of Adrenal Venous Sampling

The routine use of adrenal venous sampling could adequately detect lateralization in patients with unilateral aldosterone excess, which led to satisfactory short-term outcomes after surgery. The results of the present study showed that nearly one fourth of patients with the unilateral form had a CT-negative aldosterone-producing microadenoma.
