To compare the efficacy (including blood pressure, medication reduction, serum potassium, and clinical success) and safety parameters (including operative time, length of hospital stay, blood loss, hypertension crisis rate, and complication rate) of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and laparoscopic adrenalectomy (LA) in the treatment of primary aldost...

To study the prevalence of primary adrenal tumors and adrenal metastases in patients with neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) and describe these in detail. NENs can be further divided into neuroendocrine tumor (NET) and neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC). A review of medical files was conducted for all patients who underwent a 68Gallium-DOTATOC-PET/CT duri...

No data exist on perioperative strategies for enhancing recovery after posterior retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy (PRA). Our objective was to determine whether a multimodality adrenal fast-track and enhanced recovery (AFTER) protocol for PRA can reduce recovery time, improve patient satisfaction and maintain safety. Thirty primary aldosteronism p...

To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of robot-assisted adrenalectomy (RA) and laparoscopic adrenalectomy (LA) for pheochromocytoma (PHEO). We conducted a comprehensive search of PubMed, the Cochrane Library, and Embase databases for studies comparing RA and LA treatment for PHEO, covering the period from database inception to January 1, 2024...

Primary aldosteronism (PA) is the most common cause of secondary hypertension and one of the few medical diseases that can be cured by surgery. Excessive aldosterone secretion is highly associated with cardiovascular complications. Many studies have shown that patients with unilateral PA treated with surgery have better survival, cardiovascular, cl...

We aim to evaluate the incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) following adrenalectomy. A retrospective analysis of the Collaborative Endocrine Surgery Quality Improvement Program was performed to assess incidence for VTE, including pulmonary embolism or deep vein thrombosis, in adults undergoing adrenalectomy (2014-2022). 2567 patients undergoin...

Glucocorticoids (GCs) are secreted by the adrenal glands in response to signals from the hypothalamus and pituitary gland through the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis. Physiological GCs are important regulators of immunity, energy metabolism, oxidative stress response, and cellular homeostasis. Adrenalectomy (ADX) results in the loss of hippocam...

Laparoscopic adrenalectomy is recognized as the "gold standard" approach for benign adrenal tumors. The majority of surgeons opt for laparoscopic transabdominal adrenalectomies (LTA), while retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomies (RPA) in the prone position have certain advantages for patients. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness an...

Primary aldosteronism (PA) is the most common cause of secondary hypertension and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality when compared with blood pressure-matched cases of primary hypertension. Current limitations in patient care stem from delayed recognition of the condition, limited access to key diagnostic procedures, and lack of a...

Pheochromocytoma is a neuroendocrine tumor, and its treatment is dependent on surgical resection. Due to the wide availability of cross-sectional imaging, pheochromocytomas are commonly seen as small tumors less than 10 cm in size and are mostly treated with minimally invasive surgery. Their concomitant presence with horseshoe kidney or other anato...
