Side-specific Factors for Conversion in Adrenalectomy for Pheochromocytoma. A Comparative Analysis

Context: Adrenalectomy for pheochromocytoma (PHEO) poses difficulties due to the elevated chance of conversion. The objective of this study was to conduct a comparative analysis of the occurrence and determinants of conversion in left-sided abdominal laparoscopic adrenalectomy (LLA) and right-sided abdominal laparoscopic adrenalectomy (RLA).

Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted to include a total of 271 patients diagnosed with PHEO. These patients were separated into two groups: LRA (N=121) and LLA (N=150). The study period spanned from September 2016 to September 2023.

Detailed Description

The process of performing an adrenalectomy for pheochromocytoma (PHEO) is difficult due to the significant risk of conversion. The objective of this study was to conduct a comparative analysis of the occurrence and determinants of conversion in left-sided abdominal laparoscopic adrenalectomy (LLA) and right-sided abdominal laparoscopic adrenalectomy (RLA).

Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted to include a total of 271 patients diagnosed with PHEO. These patients were separated into two groups: LRA (N=121) and LLA (N=150). The study period spanned from September 2016 to September 2023.
