Laparoscopic Adrenalectomy

Definition

Laparoscopic adrenalectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that involves the removal of one or both adrenal glands through small incisions in the abdomen. This technique uses a laparoscope, a thin tube with a camera and light, to visualize and remove the adrenal glands with minimal damage to surrounding tissues.
