Area of Science:

  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Endocrine Surgery
  • Surgical Oncology

Context:

  • Laparoscopic adrenalectomy is increasingly utilized for adrenal gland pathologies.
  • Evaluating surgical outcomes is crucial for optimizing patient care.

Purpose:

  • To assess the feasibility, safety, and outcomes of 52 laparoscopic transperitoneal adrenalectomies.
  • To determine the efficacy of this minimally invasive approach for various adrenal lesions.

Summary:

  • 52 patients underwent laparoscopic adrenalectomy for conditions including Conn syndrome, Cushing syndrome, adenoma, pheochromocytoma, cysts, lipomas, and metastasis.
  • The initial learning curve resulted in one conversion, but technique modification eliminated further conversions.
  • Postoperative complications were low (3.8%), with no mortality and a mean hospital stay of 6 days.
