Impact of confirmatory test results on subtype classification and biochemical outcome following unilateral adrenalectomy in patients with primary aldosteronism
The use of two confirmatory tests in patients with PA results in discordant results in approximately 23% of cases. Patients having discordant confirmatory test results had a comparable rate of lateralized PA and underwent adrenalectomy with similar long-term outcome.
