Article Synopsis
- Aldosterone-producing adenomas lead to hypertension in 5-10% of cases, and this study compares laparoscopic adrenalectomy (the standard treatment) with ablative techniques for treating benign adrenal tumors.
- The review included five studies with a total of 280 patients, showing that both methods had similar complication rates, but laparoscopic adrenalectomy had a higher success rate in resolving hypertension.
- Although ablation had benefits like shorter procedure times and less blood loss, laparoscopic adrenalectomy is still considered the better treatment option overall.
Context: Among the many surgical treatments for pelvic organ prolapse (POP), better results can be achieved with the use of vaginal implants. However, owing to perceived complications, vaginal implant surgeries have been restricted or banned in many countries.
Objective: To assess the real value of vaginal implants in POP surgery and compare the safety and efficacy of operations with and without implants.
