Laparoscopic Versus Open Adrenalectomy: a Retrospective Comparative Study

Abstract: Background: Laparoscopic Adrenalectomy (LA) has rapidly become the gold standard in management of adrenal tumors as it has been found to be associated with better cosmoses, shorter hospital stay and rapid convalescence. Objective: The aim of this study was to compare laparoscopic and open approach to adrenal glands in terms of operative time, hospital stay, indications and blood loss at a tertiary medical center in Jordan. Methods: A retrospe… Show more

“…Therefore, RA may be good for pheochromocytomas as well as large malignant tumors. Finally, surgeons should remember that the choice of open adrenalectomy (OA) should be considered to accomplish complete resection in patients with tumors >10 cm, malignant tumors >6 cm, or invasion and/or vascular thrombi 29,30 …”

“…Laparoscopic adrenalectomy (LA) is considered to be the gold standard surgery for treating most benign and malignant adrenal lesions ( 1 ). Compared with open surgery, LA is associated with lower complications, faster operation time and smoother recovery ( 2 ). Although several approaches have been reported for LA, transperitoneal and retroperitoneal are the most frequently used surgical approaches for the adrenal glands ( 3 ).…”

“…Laparoscopic surgery has developed into a mainstream surgical approach in the field of urology in recent years [ 1 , 2 ]. However, the special pathophysiological conditions of elderly patients and the effect of the pneumoperitoneum on respiratory circulation during surgery may trigger a strong stress response in the body [ 3 ], which are prone to adverse prognostic outcomes such as neurocognitive disorders and damages to vital organs after surgery [ 4 ].…”
