Adrenalectomy

Our skilled providers perform adrenalectomy procedures to remove one or both adrenal glands. These glands, located above the kidneys, produce essential hormones that regulate many vital bodily functions. However, in certain medical conditions, the adrenal glands may need to be removed to alleviate symptoms and restore proper hormone balance. Our team has extensive experience conducting adrenal gland removal surgery to treat conditions like adrenal tumors, adrenal cancer, hyperaldosteronism (Conn syndrome), pheochromocytoma, and Cushing's syndrome.

An adrenalectomy can be performed through open surgery or minimally invasive (laparoscopic) surgery. Preoperative diagnosis, size of tumor, concern for malignancy, prior surgical history, and patient preference will all be evaluated and discussed as part of your recommended treatment plan.
