Adrenal Surgery

Adrenal surgery involves the removal of one or both adrenal glands, which are located on top of the kidneys. These glands produce hormones that regulate vital functions in the body, including metabolism, blood pressure, and stress response. Surgery may be necessary to treat conditions such as adrenal tumors, hormone imbalances, or cancer. The procedure can often be done using minimally invasive techniques, leading to quicker recovery times. After surgery, patients may need ongoing management of hormone levels, as the body adjusts to the change in gland function.
