Laparoscopic Bilateral Adrenalectomy With the Use of a Single Midline Hand-assist Port
نویسندگان
چکیده
Indications for bilateral adrenalectomy are rarely present in patients with Cushing's syndrome. The laparoscopic approach to adrenalectomy provides a postoperative course that compares favorably with that of open adrenalectomy, and the hand-assisted technique may provide an additional alternative to the open approach in performing bilateral adrenalectomy.

Single-Port Robotic-Assisted Adrenalectomy: Feasibility, Safety, and Cost-Effectiveness
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The introduction of robotic surgery offers patients and surgeons new options for adrenalectomy. Whereas multiport adrenalectomies have been safely performed using the robot, we describe our experience with the novel technique of single-port robotic-assisted adrenalectomy. METHODS We performed a matched-cohort study comparing 16 single-port robotic-assisted adrenalect...

متن کاملSimultaneous Bilateral Single-Port Radical Nephrectomies
The management of bilateral enhancing renal masses can be technically challenging. Simultaneous bilateral laparoscopic nephrectomies in postrenal transplant patients have been previously described, but these typically require multiple port placements in addition to a hand port. Herein, we describe simultaneous bilateral single-port laparoscopic radical nephrectomies in a postrenal transplant pa...
