The safety and efficiency of retroperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy via extra and intra perinephric fat approaches: a retrospective clinical study

Abstract: BackgroundThis retrospective clinical study is to evaluate the safety and efficiency of two different approaches in retroperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy and provide experience and basis for the treatment of adrenal tumors through retroperitoneal approach.MethodsFrom July 2015 to February 2018, 112 patients with adrenal lesions underwent retroperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy (RLA) using a 3-port method. Among them, 56 patients underwent RLA via the extra perinephric fat approach (EPFA), 56 patients u… Show more

“…In addition, there was a signi cant difference in the average surgical time between the two groups of patients, with the EPFA group having a shorter surgical time, which is consistent with studies in other countries [18][19]. Compared with traditional three-layer adrenal surgery, IPFA is an improvement, which only requires the separation of a layer between the perirenal adipose sac and the anterior fascia to effectively expose the adrenal gland.…”

“…[22] The surgeon's experience, adrenal tumor characteristics, and nature of the perinephric fat were likely to be key factors in uencing the decision. [23] In the hands of appropriately selected patients, it serves as an indispensable tool in the armamentarium of endocrine surgeons. [21] The preferred choice in our unit is RLA, whereas TRA serves as an alternative based on individual patient characteristics.…”

“…The entire cohort underwent the en bloc route. Notably, another study showed serious saponification of perinephric fat and heavy adhesion to renal fascia led to the transformation of the split route to the en bloc in three cases, suggesting that the en bloc route would be preferred in the setting of adherent fat [ 24 ]. Taken together, these findings support the potential value and promising application of Mayo score as an omnidimensional measurement of periadrenal fat for operative planning, preoperative evaluation and consultation.…”
