Abstract

Minimally invasive surgery is the standard of care for approximately 90 % of adrenalectomies. The more frequently used laparoscopic (transperitoneal) approach is suitable for larger tumors (≥5 cm) and offers the surgeon access from a more “familiar” viewpoint. The posterior retroperitoneoscopic approach is particularly useful in patients with smaller tumors, reoperative cases, or when transperitoneal access to the upper abdomen is limited.
