- W2013013445 abstract "Cushing's syndrome (CS) results from sustained exposure to excessive levels of free glucocorticoids. One of the main causes of CS is excessive adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) secretion by tumors in the pituitary gland (Cushing's disease [CD]). Cushing's disease and its associated hypercortisolism have a breadth of debilitating symptoms associated with an increased mortality rate, warranting urgent treatment. Currently, the first line of treatment for CD is transsphenoidal surgery (TSS), with excellent long-term results. Transsphenoidal resections performed by experienced surgeons have shown remission rates ranging from 70% to 90%. However, some patients do not achieve normalization of their hypercortisolemic state after TSS and continue to have persistent or recurrent CD. For these patients, various therapeutic options after failed TSS include repeat TSS, radiotherapy, medical therapy, and bilateral adrenalectomy (BLA). Bilateral adrenalectomy has been shown to be a safe and effective treatment modality for persistent or recurrent CD with an immediate and definitive cure of the hypercortisolemic state. BLA was traditionally performed through an open approach, but since the advent of laparoscopic adrenalectomy, the laparoscopic approach has become the surgical method of choice. Advances in technology, refinement in surgical skills, competency in adrenopathology, and emphasis on multidisciplinary collaborations have greatly reduced morbidity and mortality associated with adrenalectomy surgery in a high-risk patient population. In this article, the authors review the role of BLA in the treatment of refractory CD. The clinical indications, current surgical and endocrinological results reported in the literature, surgical technique (open vs laparoscopic), drawbacks, and complications of BLA are discussed." @default.
