Typing diagnostic value of 68Ga-pentixafor PET/CT for patients with primary aldosteronism and unilateral nodules
Purpose
Our goal was to compare the lateralization of 68Ga-pentixafor PET/CT with adrenal vein sampling (AVS) in primary aldosteronism (PA) patients with unilateral lesions.
Methods
We retrospectively enrolled 61 patients with PA and all patients showed unilateral nodular lesions on CT and underwent 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT. The general clinical data, imaging and AVS results were collected. The diagnostic efficiency of 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT imaging in PA patients was calculated by visual and semi-quantitative analysis to compare the consistency with AVS, and the correlation between CXCR4 express and 68Ga-Pentixafor uptake was performed.
Results
The study included 42 unilateral PA (UPA) and 19 bilateral PA (BPA). The area under curve (AUC) of 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT to diagnosis UPA with 10 min maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) > 8.17 was 0.82 ([0.70–0.90], P < 0.001), and the sensitivity and specificity were 0.64 and 0.90, respectively. The maximal AUC of 68Ga-pentixafor PET/CT for the diagnosis UPA in patients with nodules with a diameter ≥1 cm was 0.87 ([0.73–0.95],P both <0.001,[10 min SUVmax=8.17 and 10 min mean standardized uptake value (SUVmean)=5.57]), and the sensitivity and specificity were 0.73 and 0.93, respectively. Unilateral adrenalectomy and significant CXCR4 expression were present in 32 UPA, including 27 aldosterone-producing adenoma and 5 idiopathic adrenal hyperplasia. Additionally, 68Ga-pentixafor uptake in adrenal lesions was significantly correlated with CXCR4 expression, and statistical differences in 68Ga-pentixafor uptake among IRS subgroups.
Conclusions
68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT can be helpful for subtyping diagnosis of PA patients with unilateral adrenal nodular, showing significant potential in non-invasive PA classification.
期刊介绍:
Well-established as a major journal in today’s rapidly advancing experimental and clinical research areas, Endocrine publishes original articles devoted to basic (including molecular, cellular and physiological studies), translational and clinical research in all the different fields of endocrinology and metabolism. Articles will be accepted based on peer-reviews, priority, and editorial decision. Invited reviews, mini-reviews and viewpoints on relevant pathophysiological and clinical topics, as well as Editorials on articles appearing in the Journal, are published. Unsolicited Editorials will be evaluated by the editorial team. Outcomes of scientific meetings, as well as guidelines and position statements, may be submitted. The Journal also considers special feature articles in the field of endocrine genetics and epigenetics, as well as articles devoted to novel methods and techniques in endocrinology.
Endocrine covers controversial, clinical endocrine issues. Meta-analyses on endocrine and metabolic topics are also accepted. Descriptions of single clinical cases and/or small patients studies are not published unless of exceptional interest. However, reports of novel imaging studies and endocrine side effects in single patients may be considered. Research letters and letters to the editor related or unrelated to recently published articles can be submitted.
Endocrine covers leading topics in endocrinology such as neuroendocrinology, pituitary and hypothalamic peptides, thyroid physiological and clinical aspects, bone and mineral metabolism and osteoporosis, obesity, lipid and energy metabolism and food intake control, insulin, Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, hormones of male and female reproduction, adrenal diseases pediatric and geriatric endocrinology, endocrine hypertension and endocrine oncology.
