Adrenalectomy is a surgical procedure to remove one or both adrenal glands, which are located above the kidneys and produce important hormones. It may be recommended for adrenal tumors, hormone-producing adrenal disorders, adrenal cancer, or certain large or suspicious adrenal masses. Depending on the size, location, and nature of the condition, the procedure may be performed using minimally invasive laparoscopic or robotic surgery or through open surgery. Hormonal evaluation and imaging are generally performed before surgery to assess adrenal function and plan treatment.
At International St. Mary's Hospital, Cardiomyotomy is performed using advanced minimally invasive and open surgical techniques, with personalised treatment plans tailored to the patient's adrenal condition. Established in 2014, this JCI hospital in Seoul, South Korea has 808 beds and provides comprehensive endocrine and surgical services.
Adrenalectomy may be considered for patients with adrenal tumors that produce excess hormones, show suspicious characteristics, or cause significant symptoms. It may also be used in selected cases of adrenal cancer or other adrenal disorders. Before surgery, doctors may perform hormonal blood or urine tests and imaging, such as CT or MRI, to evaluate the adrenal glands. Depending on the clinical situation, the affected gland may be removed through laparoscopic, robotic, or open surgery.
