Abstract:Objective: To summarize the experience of robotic-assisted laparoscopic resection and to evaluate its value in the operation of adrenal malignancies. Methods: The clinical data of 9 patients with preoperatively diagnosed adrenal malignancy and receiving robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery between February 2015 and August 2016 were analyzed. Results: All the operations were successfully performed without conversion. Tumors were located on the left side in 6 cases, and on the right side in 3 cases. The average diameter of the tumors was 7.1 cm (ranging from 3.1 to 15.5 cm). There were 4 cases of adrenal cortical carcinoma, 3 cases of malignant pheochromocytoma, and 2 cases of adrenal metastases. The average operative time was 85 (range, 30-210) min. Average estimated blood loss was 270 (range, 50-1 100) mL. Two patients with adrenal cortical carcinoma required intraoperative blood transfusion. Average postoperative hospital stay was 8.5 (range, 5-12) days. All patients were followed up for 3-11 months. One patient with adrenal cortical carcinoma got local recurrence after 6 months, and the rest 8 cases had no signs of tumor recurrence during the follow-up period. Conclusions: Robotic-assisted laparoscopic resection of adrenal malignancies is technically feasible, and the advantages of field of view and flexibility of robotic arms may improve the outcome of surgery. However, long-term follow-up data are needed to confirm the efficacy of tumor control.
