Introduction:
Laparoscopic adrenalectomy (LA) continues to be considered the optimum approach to the surgical treatment of small benign adrenal tumours. The present study explores the correlation between the Mayo adhesive probability (MAP) score, derived from computed tomography images and delineating such perinephric fat characteristics as thickness and adhesiveness, and post-operative complications in patients undergoing LA.
Patients And Methods:
Data of patients who underwent LA between 2013 and 2023 were subjected to a retrospective analysis, and MAP scores were calculated for all patients. Intraoperative and post-operative surgical outcomes, as well as any complications, were categorised using Modified Clavien-Dindo grading, and the relationship between their MAP scores and outcomes was analysed.
Results:
The mean body mass index, rate of overweight patients, Clavien-Dindo scores of II, III or IV, surgical time, hospitalisation duration, transfusion requirement and post-operative blood loss of the group of patients with MAP scores of 2-3 were significantly higher than those in the group with MAP scores in the 0-1 range ( P < 0.05). Each one-point increase in MAP score led to a 2.559-times greater probability of a Clavien-Dindo Grade > I (95% confidence interval: 1.391-4.708, P < 0.05).
Conclusion:
A high MAP score is associated with Grade II and higher Clavien-Dindo complications in LA.
