NCT06407024
This study is being done to compare Laparoscopic vs Robotic lateral transabdominal adrenalectomy, these procedures are both standard of care. The study team would like to compare both patient outcomes and surgeon efficiency and perspectives among both procedures. The information from this study will help improve patient care, patient outcomes and maximize the appropriate utilization of resources in adrenal surgery.
NCT05853302
This retrospective study evaluates the safety and the effectiveness of robotic adrenalectomy when compared to laparoscopic approach in patients who underwent minimally-invasive lateral transperitoneal unilateral adrenalectomy
NCT07027254
This study is a randomized controlled trial to assess the clinical utility of gallium-68 pentixafor PET/CT in the management of primary aldosteronism (PA). We aim to evaluate whether the addition of 68Ga-pentixafor PET/CT to standard adrenal venous sampling (AVS) improves surgical outcomes in patients with unilateral PA.
NCT05702944
Pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PPGL) are rare neuroendocrine tumors originating from catecholamine producing chromaffin cells in the adrenal medulla and extra-adrenal paraganglia. The overall age-standardized incidence rate is 0.18 per 100,000 person-years in Korea. The definitive treatment of PPGL is surgical excision of tumor. However, surgery is associated with a high risk of perioperative hemodynamic instability (HI). To avoid perioperative HI in patients diagnosed with PPGL, preoperative management including routine use of alpha blockade and volume expansion has been advocated by several guidelines. While unstable hypertension and tachycardia should be controlled in patients with PPGL, there is controversial that all patients diagnosed with PPGL should undergo preoperative pharmacological treatment, especially alpha blockade. The most important risk of preoperative alpha blockade use is perioperative hypotension. A recent study reported that patients diagnosed with PPGL postoperatively may have no further higher risk of intraoperative hypertension than those diagnosed preoperatively despite insufficient preoperatively management of PPGL. Therefore, it is a very important to study the relationship between HI and preoperative alpha blockade in normotensive patients diagnosed with PPGL. The aim this study is to analyze the effect and safety of omitting preoperative alpha-adrenergic blockade for normotensive pheochromocytoma through a prospective randomized controlled trial. The patients is divided into two groups. The patients in control group take a phenoxybenzamine at least 2 to 5 weeks before surgery. The patients in case group do not take a phenoxybenzamine. Primary outcome is to evaluate the percentage of time during surgery with systolic blood pressure more than 160mmHg or average blood pressure less than 60mmHg. And secondary outcomes are to evaluate hemodynamic instability in preoperative ward and postoperative ward.

NCT06566521
Day surgery refers to the entire diagnostic and therapeutic process completed within 24-48 h, including patient admission, surgery, and discharge. Research by Shariq et al suggested that daytime laparoscopic adrenalectomy was a safe and effective alternative to traditional inpatient treatment. Li et al demonstrated that daytime surgery for laparoscopic partial adrenalectomy could reduce hospital stays, lower medical costs, and optimize healthcare resource utilization. The day surgery has put forward higher requirements for the management of perioperative anesthesia, in which the postoperative multimodal analgesia is particularly important.Thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) is a regional block technique in which local anaesthetics can be injected into paravertebral space to block the ipsilateral sympathetic and somatosensory nerves. TPVB single point injection can achieve sensory block of 3-6 spinal ganglia on one side, with minimal impact on respiratory, gastrointestinal and bladder function. Especially, TPVB does not affect motor nerve, which enable patients to perform painless functional exercise shortly after surgery, promote rapid recovery, and enhance satisfaction and comfort. A large number of previous studies have shown that TPVB had become increasingly popular for postoperative analgesia after thoracic or breast surgery. However, to our knowledge, few studies to date have investigated the application of TPVB in daytime adrenal surgery. Therefore, we conducted this randomized clinical trial to examine the effect of TPVB on postoperative analgesia and the quality of recovery in patients following daytime laparoscopic partial adrenalectomy.
NCT05816031
Ketogenic diet is often prescribed to morbid obese patients scheduled for bariatric surgery in order to reduce liver size, thus making surgery less demanding. The study aim to investigate the possible effects of ketogenic diet on intra- and peri-operative complications of right laparoscopic adrenalectomy in obese patients; researchers will analyze intra- and peri-operative outcomes among obese patients who underwent laparoscopic right adrenalectomy, comparing the two arms with and without ketogenic diet.
NCT03648294
To evaluate long-term results of adrenalectomy for primary aldosteronism (PA) and to identify prognostic factors associated. Exhaustive retrospective review of all consecutive patients undergoing adrenalectomy for PA between 2002 and 2013 in our department. All patients underwent preoperative: clinical evaluation (age, sex, height, weight, systolic and diastolic BP under treatment, identification of anti-hypertension treatment), biological evaluation (potassium, renin, aldosterone) and radiological evaluation (CT and/or MRI). Blood pressure was assessed postoperatively at 1 month, 1 year, then at the date of the latest news. The patients were classified into three categories: cured (no antihypertensive therapy in postoperative associated with strictly lower blood pressures of 140/90mmHg), improved (decreased number of drugs or number unchanged but with better blood pressure control), and refractory (no change in the number of drug and blood pressure, or deterioration of one or other of these two parameters).
NCT01135238
The adrenal glands are one of the most common organs involved in metastatic disease. Metastases are the second most common type of adrenal mass, second only to adenomas. It is a frequent finding during autopsy with a reported rate as high as 27% in patients with known primary malignancy. Although several studies have found an increased survival in patients who undergo resection of solitary adrenal metastases the indications for adrenalectomy in cases of metastatic adrenal tumor remain controversial. Collinson et al reported an increased survival in patients with melanoma. Median survival was 16 months for patients who underwent adrenalectomy compared to 5 months for patients with documented adrenal metastases treated non surgically. The aim of this study is to compare retrospectively in case and control study, performing adrenalectomy, open or laparoscopic, versus supportive treatment for patients with solitary adrenal gland metastases. The investigators will review charts of patients between January 1994 and November 2009 who had adrenal gland metastases. The variables the inevstigators will compare are mortality, morbidity, primary tumour sites, histological cell type, age, tumour size, presence of synchronous metastases, mean time from diagnosis of primary tumor to treatment of adrenal metastases, indication for adrenalectomy, partial versus total adrenalectomy, suspected versus confirmed metastatic disease.
