Laparoscopic Adrenalectomy for Pheochromocytoma

World Journal of Surgery, 2002
aparoscopic adrenalectomy is the standard for most surgical adrenal diseases. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of laparoscopic adrenalectomy for patients with pheochromocytoma. The medical records of 39 consecutive patients who underwent laparoscopic adrenalectomy for pheochromocytomas from 1994 to 2000 at the ...

Laparoscopic Adrenalectomy in the Elderly

Journal of Laparoendoscopic & Advanced Surgical Techniques, 1999
Laparoscopic adrenalectomy has recently been shown to be a safe and effective procedure for treating a variety of benign adrenal tumors. Advanced age, with its concomitant comorbid conditions, has been believed to be associated with more postoperative complications in laparoscopic procedures.

EXTRAPERITONEAL ‘LAPAROSCOPIC’ ADRENALECTOMY

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1994
The technique of extraperitoneal ‘laparoscopic’ adrenalectomy is described in two cases, a left sided 1 cm Conn's tumour and a right sided 3.5 cm incidental non‐functioning tumour. The extraperitoneal approach has the advantage of direct access to the adrenal gland without the need to mobilize abdominal organs, while maintaining all the advantages of ...

Laparoscopic Retroperitoneal Adrenalectomy

Surgical Laparoscopy, Endoscopy & Percutaneous Techniques, 2011
Laparoscopic adrenalectomy has largely replaced open adrenalectomy for resection of adrenal tumors, which are not adrenocortical cancer or malignant pheochromocytoma. Laparoscopic retroperitoneal adrenalectomy is a particularly useful technique in patients with tumors

Laparoscopic adrenalectomy for malignancy

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2004
Laparoscopic adrenalectomy for primary malignancies and tumors metastatic to the adrenal is controversial. Most studies demonstrate that results of laparoscopic adrenalectomy for malignant lesions are similar to those of open adrenalectomy, without its morbidity. The results of laparoscopic adrenalectomy for tumor metastases suggest that it may benefit

Laparoscopic adrenalectomy for pheochromocytoma

Surgical Endoscopy And Other Interventional Techniques, 2001
Laparoscopic adrenalectomy for Conn's syndrome, Cushing's disease, cortisol-producing adenomas, and nonfunctioning adenomas has been well established. This study was intended to evaluate the clinical outcomes of patients undergoing laparoscopic adrenalectomy for pheochromocytoma, and to assess the efficacy and safety of a minimally invasive approach ...

Laparoscopic adrenalectomy in children

Journal of Pediatric Urology, 2012
Reporting on the laparoscopic technique for adrenal disease in children and adolescents has been limited. We review here our experience with laparoscopic adrenal surgery in children.19 laparoscopic unilateral adrenalectomies were performed in 10 girls and 7 boys (mean age 3.9 years) during 1998-2011. The clinical diagnosis before surgery was virilizing

Laparoscopic transperitoneal adrenalectomy

Urologiia, 2017
To analyze the results of laparoscopic adrenalectomy (LAE) in patients with adrenal gland tumors.From 2011 to 2016, 24 patients (15 men, 9 women), mean age 49.6 +/- 8.2 years, underwent LAE. The right, left and bilateral LAE was performed in 12, 10 and 2 patients, respectively.

Laparoscopic Adrenalectomy and Esophagomyotomy

Seminars in Pediatric Surgery, 2002
Recent improvements in laparoscopic equipment, technique, and skills have contributed to advancement of the laparoscopic approach to even relatively rare pediatric surgical diseases. Two invasive operations that now may be approached laparoscopically are adrenalectomy and esophagomyotomy.

TECHNIQUE OF LAPAROSCOPIC ADRENALECTOMY

Urologic Clinics of North America, 1997
Laparoscopic adrenalectomy by the transperitoneal route has been shown to be a safe and effective approach to select adrenal pathology. Although the specific indications will continue to be refined, it is clear that for adrenal masses of 6 cm or less, laparoscopy provides excellent access with little additional risk to the patient.
