This book is designed to illustrate different techniques on how to perform successful adrenalectomies by using different approaches. It is written by renowned endocrine surgeons and includes techniques of adrenalectomy by using laparoscopic transperitoneal, posterior retroperitoneal, and robotic approaches. Each procedure includes right and left adrenalectomy. Chapters begin with a case description that defines the main aspect of surgery. Each picture, which is taken intraoperatively, is accompanied by corresponding drawings for easier understanding of the anatomical structures and steps of the procedure. In addition, annotated videos of procedures are available to supplement the material. The book also provides common pitfalls of the procedure in order to avoid complications and improve patient outcomes.
The Atlas of Adrenal Surgery offers an indispensable source of knowledge to all surgeons, those who just started their career and those who are in the more advanced stages of their practice and are learning new techniques of adrenalectomy.
