“…The presence of multiple periadrenal veins has been reported before by others. 6,12 More collateral veins may become apparent as the tumor grows. This is consistent with our finding of larger tumors in patients with variant adrenal venous anatomy.…”

“…Other, smaller cadaver studies on adrenal venous anatomy have found higher rates of variation of the adrenal venous anatomy. [6][7][8][9][10][11] Variants in these studies included both the number of veins draining the adrenal gland as well as the location of the adrenal vein in relation to the hepatic vein or inferior phrenic vein.…”

“…4 Variations to this pattern have been documented in cadaver studies, [5][6][7][8][9][10][11] a clinical study, 12 and a few case reports. 13,14 Anson and Caudwell 5 studied the venous drainage of the adrenal glands in 450 cadavers.…”

“…Subsequent cadaver studies de-scribed more variations in the adrenal veins, mainly on the right side. [6][7][8][9][10][11] These cadaver studies reported the anatomy of nondiseased adrenal glands. Adrenal pathology, possibly through angiogenesis or vasodilation of preexisting small collateral vessels, may increase both the variation of venous drainage and the number of periadrenal vessels.…”

Importance: Knowing the types and frequency of adrenal vein variants would help surgeons identify and control the adrenal vein during laparoscopic adrenalectomy. Conclusions and Relevance: Understanding variant adrenal venous anatomy is important to avoid bleeding during laparoscopic adrenalectomy, particularly in patients with large tumors or pheochromocytomas. Surgeons should anticipate a higher probability of adrenal vein variants when operating on pheochromocytomas and larger adrenal tumors.

Adrenal disorders are relative frequent with regard to the incidence of adrenal tumors and the high portion in causes of secondary hypertension. Morphological changes in the adrenal glands can lead to very different functional disorders that may be clinically overt or hard to diagnose. On the other hand, they can already be functionally relevant when structural changes are too small to be picked up by imaging. Adrenal venous sampling serves to determine the source of hormone excess through the analysis of adrenal blood. In this manuscript, we call attention to the clinical backgrounds, critical points in praxis, technical aspects and developments in the the field of adrenal venous sampling. The consideration of these important points in the clincal setting may make adrenal vein sampling studies sucessful and help to select patients that qualify for adrenalectomy. Key Points: ??Selective adrenal venous sampling (AVS) currently continues to be the gold standard for localization diagnostics in patients with primary hyperaldosteronism. ??Comprehensive standardization of all preceding examinations and AVS is necessary to ensure high success rates. ??The method is supported by contrast-enhanced imaging for ensuring proper positioning of the catheter in the adrenal veins and the rapid cortisol assay. ??Knowledge of the anatomy and normal variants of the adrenal veins facilitates adrenal venous sampling.
