• W3031249754 abstract "ObjectiveTo assess the long-term outcome of unilateral adrenaletomy in patients with adrenocorticotropic hormone independent macronodular adrenal hyperplasia (AIMAH).MethodsThe data from 82 cases of AIMAH were reviewed and summarized including clinical manifestations, endocrinological data, imaging findings and postoperative follow-up. Fouty-nine males and thirty-three females with a mean age of fifty years composed our series. Among the 82 cases, 41 demonstrated Cushing syndrome(CS) , 74 presented with hypertension, 38 manifested diabetes mellitus, 35 complicated of osteoporosis and 11 of them with bone fracture, 39 complained of edema. Laboratory tests showed low ACTH plasma levels ( 284.2nmol/L) was found in 67 of 79 cases. Elevated serum cortisol with loss of the circadian rhythm was presented in 55 of 60 cases. Failed to suppress cortisol secretion was observed in 61 of 63 conducted with low-dose dexamethasone suppression tests and in 47 of 53 implemented with high-dose dexamethasone suppression tests. Bilateral massively enlarged multinodular adrenal glands were found in all cases with CT or MR imaging. Unilateral adrenalectomy was performed in the larger side of adrenal gland in all 82 cases. All adrenalectomies were carried out including 47 in right sides and 35 in left sides, with 77 by retroperitoneoscopic approach and 5 by open retroperitoneal approach.ResultsHistopathological examination confirmed nodular hyperplasia of the adrenal cortex for all specimens. After a mean duration of 48.5 months, 80 of 82 patients were available for follow-up. Most clinical symptoms resolved within 6 months after operation. Cushingoid features disappeared in 58.5%(24/41)of patients who initially presented with typical signs of Cushing Syndrome. Weight loss was seen in 56.3%(45/80). Improvement of hypertension and diabetes was observed in 63.5% (47/74) and 76.3%(29/38) respectively. All the eyelids swelling and edema of the limbs subsided within 3 months. In long-term follow-up(more than 6 months), 82.9% (63/76) had clinical and biochemical recurrence within a mean time of 14.6 months and 46.0%(29/63) received contralateral adrenal surgery. Two patients died, one died from heart attack and another one died from pulmonary infection, 2 years and 7 years after unilateral adrenalectomy, respectively.ConclusionsUnilateral adrenalectomy just has transient efficiency for AIMAH. Most patients will experience clinical and biochemical recurrence for a long period, and have to receive another operation for the contralateral hyperplastic adrenal gland.Key words: Cushing syndrome; Macronodular adrenal hyperplasia; Adrenaletomy" @default.
