Objectives Adrenal vein sampling (AVS) is the standard criterion for the subtype diagnosis in primary aldosteronism (PA). Although lateralized index (LI) >= 4 after cosyntropin stimulation is the commonly recommended cut-off for unilateral aldosterone hypersecretion, many of the referral centres in the world use LI cut-off of
