Cryosurgery of the Adrenal Gland

open access: yesTechnology in Cancer Research & Treatment, 2004
Adrenalectomy has become the standard of care for the management of hormonally active adrenal masses. Minimally invasive adrenal-sparing surgical techniques have recently been introduced for the treatment of benign adrenal lesions, with the intent of complete excision or destruction. Cryosurgery is one such modality that is focused on reducing patient

Pattern recognition receptors as key players in adrenal gland dysfunction during sepsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Undergoing systemic inflammation, the innate immune system releases excessive proinflammatory mediators, which finally can lead to organ failure. Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and NOD-like receptors (
