Adrenal Surgery
The adrenal glands are endocrine glands that are yellowish in color and are located on top of each kidney. They are responsible for the production of very important hormones (such as cortisol, aldosterone and adrenaline) for the proper function of the human body.
Common adrenal disorders
Many times an adrenal gland tumor is discovered by accident (incidentally) in an imaging test that was done for another reason (e.g. in an abdominal ultrasound). This tumor, because it is “incidentally found”, is called adrenal incidentaloma. If the adrenal tumor is inactive, i.e. it does not produce an increased amount of hormones and if it is smaller than 3 cm, it is simply monitored annually with ultrasound or MRI. If it is active – i.e. it produces an increased amount of hormones – or it is over than 3 cm or growing in successive tests, then it is removed.
The patient shows symptoms of increased secretion of adrenal hormones and an adrenal gland tumor is found on imaging test. In this case, it is required the removal of the adrenal gland as well as the adrenal tumor.
Surgical adrenalectomy
The surgical removal of the adrenal glands (surgical adrenalectomy) is difficult due to their anatomical location, which is very deep within the peritoneal cavity and close to large vessels. For this reason, the laparoscopic adrenalectomy has a significant advantage over the conventional open adrenalectomy.
With laparoscopic adrenalectomy, even the most difficult anatomical points of the abdomen can be approached safely and comfortably. Furthermore, due to the magnification of the image from the laparoscopic camera, the surgical procedures are performed more safely for the patient (near the large vessels of the abdomen). In conclusion, the use of laparoscopic adrenalectomy allows the performance of minimally invasive surgery with the advantages of more rapid recovery and a shorter hospital stay than open adrenalectomy.
My visit to Surgishape Medical Clinic was a unique experience! I was actually helped with Laser liposuction and despite what I had heard the results were truly unique (and permanent).
A big thank you to the whole team who with their knowledge and experience helped me feel better about myself and my body!
Maria KI had struggled for quite some time with diets and exercise to lose some extra pounds, but in some areas I was not getting the desired result. Fortunately, an acquaintance of mine, who had visited Surgishape Medical Clinic, urged me to visit her as well to find a definitive solution to my problem. There, I was recommended by the specialized doctors of the clinic to undergo Smartlipo liposuction. For me it is now considered one of the best if not the best remedy for buns and in turn I am already recommending it to my circle! I have no signs of surgery and most importantly I had almost no pain after it!
Konstantina D.My experience was excellent. I was always worried about the result in case I did any treatment on my face. I didn't want to look too "frozen", nor to lose my expressiveness completely. I found the solution at Surgishape Medical Clinic. I was completely happy with the final result which looks completely natural. As my skin is sensitive, I had some small irritations in the area of the buttock, but they subsided within a few hours. I would like at this point to thank everyone for their care and interest.
Argyro K.Smartlipo is exactly what every woman is looking for after pregnancy I "dared" it after the 2 births that gave me my 2 wonderful children, but left the abdominal area sore and relaxed.
I trusted Surgishape Medical Clinic and my right choice was confirmed. I found my self-confidence again, now I am both a mother and a woman, they are two inviolable qualities that must go hand in hand. Thank you very much for everything!
