Established in 1842, the SAChospital is located in Basel, Switzerland, and operates 773 beds, with modern surgical and endocrine infrastructure.
Adrenalectomy is performed to remove one or, in selected circumstances, both adrenal glands when affected by a tumor or other significant adrenal disorder. The surgical approach depends on the tumor's size, location, hormonal activity, and suspected pathology. Laparoscopic or robotic adrenalectomy may be appropriate for selected benign lesions, while open surgery may be required for larger or potentially malignant tumors. Preoperative endocrine assessment is particularly important for hormone-secreting tumors, and postoperative monitoring helps manage changes in hormone levels and support recovery.
