Detailed Description
This is a prospective study. We will enroll 100 patients with definite diagnosis of PA using adrenal venous sampling(AVS) as the gold standard for subtype to evaluate the value of 68Ga-pentixaforPET/CT in the diagnosis of PA.
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
unilateral primary aldosteronism(UPA) PA confirmatory tests was positive; successful intubation (SI ≥ 3) and LI ≥ 4; If LI between 2 and 4, should be combined with contralateral inhibition index < 1 or CT indicate typical adenomas on the dominant side. |
Diagnostic Test: 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT imaging
68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT imaging
|
bilateral adrenal hyperplasia(BAH) PA confirmatory tests was positive; successful intubation (SI ≥ 3) and LI < 2; or LI between 2 and 4 but does not meet the UPA conditions |
Diagnostic Test: 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT imaging

AUC
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
-
PA diagnosis confirmed by at least one confirmatory test
-
willingness to undergo AVS and surgery
-
informed consent to participate in the study.
Exclusion Criteria:
-
PA patients who met guideline criteria for bypassing AVS [i.e. younger than 35 years old, with typical APA characteristics (plasma aldosterone >300pg/ml, plasma renin < 2·5mIU/l, serum potassium <3·5mmol/l, CT indicated unilateral 1cm low-density adenoma);
-
failed adrenal vein cannulation during AVS;
-
Subtyping diagnosis was inconclusive based on AVS results (e.g. aldosterone/cortisol ratio in bilateral adrenal veins lower than the peripheral vein, or missing data);
-
pregnant or lactating women;
-
patients with a history of uncontrolled malignant tumor;
-
concurrent Cushing's syndrome [including mild autonomous cortisol secretion: cortisol after 1mg dexamethasone suppression test (DST)>138 nmol/l or cortisol after 2mg DST
50 nmol/l or cortisol after 1mg DST 50-138 nmol/l plus adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH)<10pg/ml;
-
diagnosis of familial hyperaldosteronism;
-
imaging characteristics suggestive of pheochromocytoma or adrenal cortical carcinoma;
-
unsuitable for surgery, such as heart failure with New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III or IV, severe anemia (Hemoglobin<60g/L), stroke or acute coronary syndrome within 3 months, severe ascites and cirrhosis, estimated glomerulus filtration rate<30ml/min/m;
-
alcohol or drug abuse and mental disorders.
