How Laparoscopic Adrenalectomy (Transabdominal/Retroperitoneal) is performed
This procedure is performed under general anesthesia and can be approached transabdominally or retroperitoneally. Typically, several small incisions are made in the abdominal wall to establish channels, and endoscopic instruments are inserted to dissect the structures around the adrenal gland, identify and manage the feeding veins, remove the lesion, and extract it in a bag. If necessary, part of the gland is preserved or a drain is placed. Postoperative monitoring of blood pressure, electrolytes, and hormone levels aims to stabilize endocrine function and promote recovery. The above is general health information, not medical advice; specific information is subject to specialist assessment and hospital protocols.
