OBJECTIVE: (1) To assess plasma renin activity (PRA) and plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) in patients with inferior vena cava syndrome (IVCS). (2) To study in an open fashion the efficacy of loop diuretic treatment, single, or in combination with an ACE-inhibitor or with spironolactone.
METHODS: In 13 patients PRA and PAC were measured and related to urinary sodium excretion (UNa).
RESULTS: Highly elevated PRA and PAC were found in recently developed IVCS. The correlation coefficient between PAC and UNa was -0.61, p < 0.05. In 10 patients the influence of captopril (C)] at maximum tolerable doses with or without furosemide (F) was evaluated. Mean tolerated dose of C amounted to 8.8 mg t.i.d. (range 2-25), achieving a PAC reduction of 26%. Efficacy of F was severely blunted when PAC exceeded the low-normal range. Spironolactone addition at 100 mg/day in non-responders to F or to F and C, induced immediate natriuretic responses except in a patient with 7-70 fold increase in PAC.
CONCLUSIONS: (1) In IVCS loop diuretic efficacy is attenuated by aldosterone activation; (2) complete aldosterone suppression with captopril is difficult to achieve due to dose restriction; (3) spironolactone is favoured for a synergistic response.
