Area of Science:

  • Surgical Oncology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Robotic Surgery

Background:

  • Adrenal-sparing surgery is a safe alternative to total adrenalectomy for small, benign adrenal lesions, reducing adrenal insufficiency risk.
  • Laparoscopic partial adrenalectomy shows excellent outcomes, but robot-assisted approaches remain unreported.
  • Minimally invasive partial adrenalectomy for isolated adrenal metastasis has not been previously documented.

Observation:

  • A case of robot-assisted partial adrenalectomy was performed in a patient with a history of renal-cell carcinoma.
  • The patient had previously undergone contralateral adrenalectomy for metastasis.
  • This procedure addressed a small, isolated adrenal metastasis.

Findings:

  • This report details the surgical technique for a complete robot-assisted partial adrenalectomy.
  • Short-term follow-up data for the patient is presented.
  • This represents the first documented case of a complete robot-assisted partial adrenalectomy.

Implications:

  • Robot-assisted partial adrenalectomy may be a valuable technique for adrenal gland surgery due to its precision.
  • Minimally invasive partial adrenalectomy is feasible for managing isolated adrenal metastases.
  • This approach could expand treatment options for adrenal pathologies while preserving adrenal function.
