Overview

Surgery is the mainstay of treatment for [disease or malignancy]. Adrenalectomy for patients with aldosteronomas, pheochromocytoma, cortisol-secreting tumors, and adrenal incidentalomas is safe and effective. A reasonable strategy may be to consider adrenalectomy for younger patients and those with new onset or a worsening of underlying comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, obesity, or osteoporosis. All patients with documented pheochromocytoma and adrenocortical cancer should undergo prompt surgical intervention. Risk factors for complications during surgery include high plasma norepinephrine concentration and larger tumor size.

Surgery

  • Surgery is the mainstay of treatment for incidentaloma.
  • The decision to operate should take into account the presence of the metabolic consequences of cortisol excess.
  • A reasonable strategy may be to consider adrenalectomy for younger patients and those with new onset or a worsening of underlying comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, obesity, or osteoporosis.
  • There was a significant improvement in blood pressure and fasting blood glucose in patients who underwent surgery, but a worsening of blood pressure and fasting blood glucose in those who chose to be managed conservatively during a follow-up period of 18–48 months.
  • Although adrenal myelolipomas may grow over time, they can usually be followed without surgical excision. However, when larger than 6 cm in diameter or when causing local mass-effect symptoms, surgical removal should be considered.[1]
