Purpose: Primary bilateral macronodular adrenal hyperplasia (PBMAH), the most common cause of Cushing's syndrome due to bilateral nodules, is a heterogeneous disease at the clinical, hormonal and morphological levels. ARMC5 inactivating pathogenic variants are causative of PBMAH and rare variants of PDE11A have been associated with PBMAH.

Methods: Leukocyte DNA of 354 PBMAH index cases was sequenced for ARMC5 and PDE11A genes by Next generation sequencing (NGS).

  • A 50-year-old man presented with a large mass in his left thigh causing significant pain and impaired functionality, with imaging showing widespread tumors in several body parts, but the primary cancer source was unknown.
  • Despite rapid tumor progression, he began treatment with nivolumab, an immunotherapy drug, and further genomic profiling led to a re-diagnosis of SMARCA4-deficient epithelioid sarcoma.
  • After 5 weeks of treatment, the patient showed significant improvement despite facing some immune-related side effects; by the 12th dose, he had a positive response to the therapy with no new complications.

Department of Cardiovascular, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, No. 74, Linjiang Road, Yuzhong District, Chongqing, 400010, China.

In order to provide some references for vein approach selection in adrenal vein sampling (AVS), this retrospective study analyzed 325 cases of primary aldosteronism (PA) patients who underwent AVS via the upper extremity vein approach, comparing the differences in complications and visual analogue scale (VAS) scores through median cubital vein (MCV), basilic vein (BV), and cephalic vein (CV). The results indicated no significant difference in the incidence of venous spasm (right MCV vs. right BV vs.
