Summary

The goal of this multicenter, observational, analytic, randomized clinical trial is to analyze the laparoscopic and robot-assisted method in the surgical treatment of patients with adrenal diseases. The main question it aims to answer are: 1. to find the superiority of one the the surgical method mentioned above 2. to compare the quality of life in patients with adrenal mass before surgery and after laparoscopic or robotic-assisted adrenalectomy.

Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study compares two surgical approaches for removing a diseased adrenal gland: traditional laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery versus robot-assisted surgery. Researchers want to understand which method leads to better outcomes for patients. **You may be eligible if...** - Your doctor has determined you need adrenal gland removal based on hormone tests and imaging scans - You are willing and able to give written consent **You may NOT be eligible if...** - Both adrenal glands need to be removed at the same time - Your adrenal tumor is larger than 12 cm - Imaging suggests the tumor may be cancerous and is growing into surrounding tissue or blood vessels Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

This summary was AI-generated to explain the trial in plain language. It is not medical advice. Always discuss eligibility with your doctor before enrolling in a clinical trial.
