- W4365444281 abstract "Posterior retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy (PRA) is purported to be superior to the laparoscopic transperitoneal approach (LA) in patients with a select spectrum of benign adrenal pathologies. Advantages attributed to the technique include minimal blood loss, shortened operative times, and decreased postoperative pain, explained anatomically by the direct access to the adrenal gland. Reduced workspace is a limitation.A retrospective review of 22 consecutive PRAs performed in a single centre between 1 September 2016 and 30 October 2020 is presented. Two experienced laparoscopic surgeons operated on all patients after acquiring the technique at international centres. Suitable candidates were carefully pre-selected. Non-benign pathology, high vascularity, body mass index (BMI) ≥ 45 kg/m2 and anatomical concerns on prior computed tomography (CT) imaging were exclusion criteria.Twenty-two PRAs were performed for a spectrum of benign adrenal pathologies. Twenty-one surgeries (95%) were completed. A single case of pheochromocytoma required conversion. The procedure was safe, a minor postoperative complication (pneumaturia) occurred in one case, and the mortality rate was 0%. Median operative time (80 minutes) is comparable to other reported series in the literature, with a modest linear descending tendency noted over the study period. Underlying pathology influenced operative times. Pheochromocytomas proved to be most challenging and required careful preoperative evaluation.The PRA procedures performed at Tygerberg Academic Hospital were safe and reproducible in a select group of cases with benign adrenal pathology. Endocrine surgeons proficient with laparoscopic techniques should be encouraged to use the PRA approach when encountering adrenal neoplasms that fit the criteria." @default.
