Single-center analysis shows improved survival with adrenalectomy in metastatic adrenal tumors, suggesting careful surgical planning is crucial.
Adrenalectomy can achieve favorable long-term survival in selected patients with adrenal metastasis. Laparoscopic adrenalectomy is an effective minimally invasive option for tumors <5 cm, whereas tumors ≥5 cm are associated with greater surgical invasiveness and poorer prognosis, necessitating careful operative planning and consideration of open adrenalectomy.
