“…Most of these studies have been retrospective observational comparative studies, 13,14,[16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24]26 and only one of them was a randomized controlled trial. 15 One of the first series comparing LA with robotic adrenalectomy was by Morino et al who evaluated outcomes in 10 patients who underwent laparoscopic and robotic adrenalectomy.…”

Laparoscopy has established itself as the procedure of choice for performing adrenalectomy in benign adrenal disorders. Although laparoscopy scores heavily over open approach in terms of lesser blood loss, pain, shorter hospital stay and better cosmesis, it is riddled with certain shortcomings such as the need of dexterity, two-dimensional vision, dependence on an assistant for camera, etc. Robotic surgery promises to overcome these limitations. Multiple series have established that robotic adrenalectomy is a safe and effective procedure as conventional laparoscopy. Recently, robotic surgery has been found to be precise and accurate in performing partial adrenalectomy in hereditary adrenal syndrome cases. Other advances like single-port surgery have expanded the horizon and indications of robotic surgery. This review aims at studying the current evidence available for the effectiveness of robot-assisted adrenalectomy and defining its current status in managing adrenal disorders.

“…Patients in robotic group had a shorter OR time (149 vs 178 minutes), less EBL (36 vs 43 mL), fewer conversions (1 vs 3) and shorter LOS (1.2 vs 1.7 days). 19 Agcaoglu et al performed a prospective comparative study of 24 patients in robotic group with 38 patients in laparoscopic group undergoing adrenalectomy for large tumors (mean size: 6.5 ± 0. …”

“…No intraoperative hypertension or other anesthetic complications were noted. The successful use of robotic partial nephrectomy in this case demonstrates that this method is as useful in the management of renal paragangliomas as it is in the management of adrenal pheochromocytomas [18]. The patient's postoperative course was free of complications and imaging studies did not show any recurrence or metastasis during a follow-up period of six months [18, 19].…”

“…Recent data have shown that robotic resection is a non-inferior technique regarding safety and efficacy. 4 Similarly, concerning paraganglioma surgery, the mini-invasive laparoscopic approach is the current treatment of choice. Goers and colleagues 5 reported a safety profile with low morbidity and outcome similar to adrenal pheochromocytomas; conversely in this series performed through lateral transperitoneal approach, the surgical time was significantly longer.…”

Cite as: Can Urol Assoc J 2015;9(7-8):E539-41. http://dx.doi.org/10.5489/cuaj.2501 Published online July 17, 2015. AbstractWe report a case of a 75-year-old male with biopsy-proven prostate cancer and candidate for radical prostatectomy. The patient's medical history includes hypertension and atrial fibrillation in prophylactic treatment; however, he was suffering from recurrent paroxysmal episodes of supraventricular tachycardia. Abdominal magnetic resonance performed for prostate cancer staging detected a non-lymphatic inter-cavo-aortic mass of 42 × 37 × 43 cm. Results of biochemical screening confirmed the clinical diagnosis of symptomatic paraganglioma. The patient was subjected in a single robotic session for concurrent excision of the inter-aortocaval mass and radical prostatectomy with bilateral pelvic lymphnode dissection. During the procedure, there were no anesthesiological or surgical complications. The postoperative course was uneventful and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 5. Six months after surgery, his prostate-specific antigen level was undetectable and the abdominal magnetic resonance imaging was negative for local recurrence or metastasis of paraganglioma. No more episodes of tachycardia were reported or antihypertensive therapy was necessary.
