13. Presentation and surgery outcomes in elderly with pheocromocytoma: a comparative analysis with young patients
ABSTRACT Purpose: To evaluate the presentation and early surgical outcomes of elderly patients undergoing adrenalectomy for phaeochromocytoma. Patients and Methods: A retrospective search was performed of our adrenal disorders database for patients who underwent surgery for phaeochromocytoma or paraganglioma between 2009 and 2014. Patients >60 years old we

14. Beyond biology: the impact of marital status on survival of patients with adrenocortical carcinoma
Purpose: To analyze the association of marital status and survival of patients with ACC using a population-based database. Material and Methods: Patients with ACC were abstracted from the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database from 1988-2010 (n=1271). Variables included marital status (married vs single/divorced/widowed (SDW)), gender, a

15. Rapid response of hypercortisolism to vandetanib treatment in a patient with advanced medullary thyroid cancer and ectopic Cushing syndrome
Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) may rarely present with paraneoplastic syndromes. Among the most frequent ones are the appearance of diarrhea and ectopic Cushing syndrome (ECS). The ECS in the context of MTC is usually present in patients with distant metastatic disease. The use of drugs such as ketoconazole, metyrapone, somatostatin analogs and etomidate

16. Retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy in pheochromocytoma
Since the first laparoscopic adrenalectomy, the technique has evolved and it has become the standard of care for many adrenal diseases, including pheochromocytoma. Two laparoscopic accesses to the adrenal have been developed: transperitoneal and retroperitoneal. Retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy may be recommended for the treatment of pheochromocytoma with

18. Laparoscopic skill laboratory in urological surgery: tools and methods for resident training
PURPOSE: Laparoscopy has certainly brought considerable benefits to patients, but laparoscopic surgery requires a set of skills different from open surgery, and learning in the operating room may increase surgical time, and even may be harmful to patients. Several training programs have been developed to decrease these potential prejudices. PURPOSES: to desc

19. Histomorphometric changes in the perirenal adipocytes of adrenalectomized rats treated with dexamethasone
INTRODUCTION: Prolonged steroid treatment administered to any patient can cause visceral obesity, which is associated with metabolic disease and Cushing's syndrome. Glucocorticoids have a profound negative effect on adipose tissue mass, giving rise to obesity, which in turn is regulated by the 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 enzyme. Adrenalectomized

20. Hiperaldosteronismo primário: relato de dois casos
The authors present two cases of Primary Hiperaldosteronism, caused by functioning adenoma of the adrenal's cortex. The two females patients presented classic symptoms of the Conn's disease, especially hypocalemia and hypertension. Both were operated and unilateral adrenalectomy was done, with excelent outcome in one and satisfactory in the other one. It is

21. Mecanismos celulares e moleculares de ação dos glicocorticóides endógenos sobre a mobilização de neutrófilos / Cellular and molecular mechanisms of action of endogenous glucocorticoids on the neutrophil mobilization
We have shown that endogenous glucocorticoids (GE) modulate the rolling and adhesion of neutrophils in vivo, mediating the expression of adhesion molecules on leukocytes and the endothelium. Additionally, the GE control neutrophil maturation in bone marrow and mobilization to peripheral blood. This work aimed to investigate the molecular and cellular mechani

22. Técnica laparoscópica versus técnica aberta para adrenalectomia experimental em suínos / Laparoscopic techniques versus open technique for swines in experimental adrenalectomy
Adrenalectomia é um procedimento operatório de alto grau de complexidade. Para sua execução o cirurgião deve ter conhecimento dos aspectos anatomofisiológicos das glândulas adrenais, especialmente sua diversidade vascular, deve ainda ter pleno entendimento sobre os recursos diagnósticos necessários para identificação das suas enfermidades. Adrenal

23. Hiperplasia endotelial papilífera de supra-renal: relato de caso
Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia is a benign and rare intravascular process thought to arise from an organizing thrombus. Involvement of the adrenal gland is extremely rare, with only one case reported in the literature. We report a case of this vascular lesion in the adrenal gland, treated with laparoscopic adrenalectomy.

24. Pheochromocytoma: a long-term follow-up of 24 patients undergoing laparoscopic adrenalectomy
Purpose: Pheochromocytomas are tumors derived from chromaffin cells that often secrete catecholamines and cause hypertension. The clinical diagnosis of pheochromocytoma depends on the presence of excessive production of catecholamines. Conventional imaging modalities that have been used in the preoperative evaluation include CT, MRI, and 131I-MIBG scintigrap
