    Author: Janetschek G, Lhotta K, Gasser R, Finkenstedt G, Jaschke W, Bartsch G.
    Journal: J Endourol; 1997 Apr; 11(2):145-8. PubMed ID: 9107590.
    Abstract:
    We herein present the first case in the literature of enucleation of an aldosterone-producing adenoma by laparoscopy. The indication for adrenal-sparing surgery was bilateral adrenal adenoma. The operation turned out to be easier than laparoscopic adrenalectomy. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was cured; split adrenal function tests showed normal function of both adrenal glands.
