Robotic approach for partial adrenalectomy.

Updates in surgery
Although safe and feasible, partial adrenalectomy is not a widespread procedure. Endorsement of robotic technologies and fluorescence techniques in adrenal surgery might help develop partial adrenalectomy and could avoid unnecessary total adrenalecto...

Robot-assisted adrenalectomy: state of the art.

Updates in surgery
Currently, laparoscopic adrenalectomy is worldwide considered the gold standard technique. Both transperitoneal and retroperitoneal approaches have proved their efficacy with excellent outcomes. Since the introduction of da Vinci System (Intuitive Su...

Metabolomics, machine learning and immunohistochemistry to predict succinate dehydrogenase mutational status in phaeochromocytomas and paragangliomas.

The Journal of pathology
Phaeochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) are rare neuroendocrine tumours with a hereditary background in over one-third of patients. Mutations in succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) genes increase the risk for PPGLs and several other tumours. Mutation...

CT Texture Analysis and Machine Learning Improve Post-ablation Prognostication in Patients with Adrenal Metastases: A Proof of Concept.

Cardiovascular and interventional radiology
INTRODUCTION: To assess the performance of pre-ablation computed tomography texture features of adrenal metastases to predict post-treatment local progression and survival in patients who underwent ablation using machine learning as a prediction tool...

Machine learning-based texture analysis for differentiation of large adrenal cortical tumours on CT.

Clinical radiology
AIM: To compare the efficacy of computed tomography (CT) texture analysis and conventional evaluation by radiologists for differentiation between large adrenal adenomas and carcinomas.

Surgical Approaches to the Adrenal Gland.

The Surgical clinics of North America
Adrenalectomy can be performed open, endoscopically or robotically, utilizing a transabdominal or retroperitoneal approach. This chapter describes the relevant anatomy, various approaches and surgical techniques, pre-operative work-up and optimizatio...

Insulin resistance and adrenal incidentalomas: A bidirectional relationship.

Maturitas
An adrenal incidentaloma (AI) is an adrenal mass incidentally found via a radiological modality, independent of an endocrinological investigation. In this review, we aimed to investigate the possible reasons behind the increased frequency in AI detec...

Characterization of Adrenal Lesions on Unenhanced MRI Using Texture Analysis: A Machine-Learning Approach.

Journal of magnetic resonance imaging : JMRI
BACKGROUND: Adrenal adenomas (AA) are the most common benign adrenal lesions, often characterized based on intralesional fat content as either lipid-rich (LRA) or lipid-poor (LPA). The differentiation of AA, particularly LPA, from nonadenoma adrenal ...

Cardiovascular events in patients with mild autonomous cortisol secretion: analysis with artificial neural networks.

European journal of endocrinology
BACKGROUND: The independent role of mild autonomous cortisol secretion (ACS) in influencing the cardiovascular event (CVE) occurrence is a topic of interest. We investigated the role of mild ACS in the CVE occurrence in patients with adrenal incident...
