pubmed:abstractText
Unilateral total adrenalectomy is the standard treatment for benign unilateral adrenal tumors. Partial adrenalectomy has to be considered for bilateral adrenal tumors. Recently, our group has reported the feasibility of unilateral and bilateral partial adrenalectomy by means of laparoscopy. Now, we present a case of recurrent pheochromocytoma after open bilateral adrenalectomy and demonstrate that laparoscopic cortex-sparing surgery is feasible for a recurrence after open surgery.
