How Laparoscopic/Retroperitoneal Adrenalectomy is performed
Under general anesthesia, the adrenal gland is exposed via a laparoscopic or retroperitoneal approach, and a resection strategy is formulated based on the location and extent of the lesion. The common practice is to separate the surrounding structures under a high-definition lens, handle the blood supply, and then remove the lesion or the entire gland and send it for pathology. Vital signs are continuously monitored during the operation; postoperative attention is paid to pain, bleeding, and electrolyte changes, with the goal of stabilizing blood pressure and promoting recovery. The above is general health information, not medical advice; the specific information is subject to specialist assessment and hospital protocols.
