Laparoscopic Versus Robotic Lateral Transabdominal Adrenalectomy
Laparoscopic Versus Robotic Lateral Transabdominal Adrenalectomy: a Single-center Randomized Prospective Trial
The Cleveland Clinic
54 participants
May 22, 2024
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
This study is being done to compare Laparoscopic vs Robotic lateral transabdominal adrenalectomy, these procedures are both standard of care. The study team would like to compare both patient outcomes and surgeon efficiency and perspectives among both procedures. The information from this study will help improve patient care, patient outcomes and maximize the appropriate utilization of resources in adrenal surgery.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria2
- Men and women between ages 18 and 75
- Diagnosis of an adrenal tumor/pathology planned for a minimally invasive adrenalectomy at the department of endocrine surgery at the Cleveland Clinic.
Exclusion Criteria5
- Requirement for an open adrenalectomy based on imaging studies suggesting an aggressive cancer.
- The presence of extensive surgical history precluding a minimally invasive approach to be undertaken.
- Patients planned for a partial, rather than a complete adrenalectomy, as the former is a much easier procedure.
- Patients planned for a posterior adrenalectomy (these would be patients with an extensive surgical history with significant intra-abdominal adhesions and those requiring bilateral adrenalectomy).
- Mental incapacity or language barrier
