ABSTRACT
Introduction: Since 1997, laparoscopic adrenalectomy began to be performed in our center.
Objective: To analyze the results of laparoscopic adrenalectomy in the surgical treatment of pheochromocytoma in the general surgery service of the "Hermanos Ameijeiras" Surgical Clinical Hospital.
Methods: From November 1997 to June 2019, 192 adrenalectomies were performed laparoscopically in 190 patients and in 41 they were performed for adrenal pheochromocytoma, in the general surgery service of the "Hermanos Ameijeiras" Surgical Clinical Hospital. The laparoscopic technique with an intraperitoneal lateral approach was used in most cases, and the supine approach in one case for bilateral adrenalectomy.
Results: 41 laparoscopic adrenalectomies were performed in 40 patients for adrenal pheochromocytoma, in 1 patients bilateral adrenalectomy was performed at one time. The average age was 44 years. Lesions on the right side predominated in 26 patients, 14 on the left side and one bilateral. 1 patients (0.41%) were converted to conventional surgery. The average surgical time was 80 minutes. The average postoperative stay was 2.5 days. All patients were cured of high blood pressure.
Conclusions: Laparoscopic adrenalectomy is a reproducible and safe technique in the treatment of adrenal pheochromocytoma.
