After a suprarenal gland excision, the patient requires lifelong medication due to the disruption of adrenalin, glucocorticoids and other hormone production by the extripated organ. Because of this, the operation is only performed if neoplasms in the suprarenal gland threaten the life of the patient and conservative therapy is unsuccessful.
INDICATIONS FOR SURGICAL INTERVENTION
- suprarenal gland cystic lesions;
- Conn syndrome;
- pheochromocytoma;
- adrenocortical cancer;
- suprarenal gland adenoma;
