Laparoscopic transperitoneal adrenalectomy was first reported in 1992 by Gagner et al. [1]. During the last decade, it has largely replaced the open approach as the standard of care for adrenal gland removal, especially for benign tumors, given the well-known advantages of minimally invasive surgery. Nevertheless, laparoscopy is recognized as associated with a steep learning curve and has some technical constraints. Robotic surgery can potentially provide a solution to these drawbacks.

Abstract
Laparoscopic transperitoneal adrenalectomy was first reported in 1992 by Gagner et al. [1]. During the last decade, it has largely replaced the open approach as the standard of care for adrenal gland removal, especially for benign tumors, given the well-known advantages of minimally invasive surgery. Nevertheless, laparoscopy is recognized as associated with a steep learning curve and has some technical constraints. Robotic surgery can potentially provide a solution to these drawbacks.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
