Comparison of radiofrequency ablation versus laparoscopic adrenalectomy for benign aldosterone-producing adenoma

Comparison of radiofrequency ablation versus laparoscopic adrenalectomy for benign aldosterone-producing adenoma

Purpose To retrospectively compare the safety and efficacy of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) with laparoscopic adrenalectomy (LA) in treating aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) of the adrenal gland. Materials and methods From September 2009 to September 2013, seven patients, diagnosed with unilatera...

Zusammenfassung:Purpose To retrospectively compare the safety and efficacy of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) with laparoscopic adrenalectomy (LA) in treating aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) of the adrenal gland. Materials and methods From September 2009 to September 2013, seven patients, diagnosed with unilateral adrenal APA and underwent computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous RFA, were recruited in this retrospective study. Eighteen unilateral adrenal APA with the same tumor size (
