Partial adrenalectomy has been widely performed in the last decades in order to diminish the number of patients who would become lifetime dependent of hormonal replacement. Method: between 2016 and 2018 seven patients were submitted to minimally invasive partial adrenalectomy in Ponderas Academic Hospital. the median age at the time of surgery was 56 years (range 42-67 years) while the indications for partial adrenalectomy (PA) were represented by Conn's syndrome in four cases, bilateral pheochromocytoma in one cases and nonfunctional adrenal tumors in two cases.

Introduction: primary hyperaldosteronism is one of the few potentially curable causes of secondary arterial hypertension. One of the most important variants is the adenoma of the adrenal cortex that produces aldosterona (Conn's Syndrome). The treatment of choice in this subgroup of patients was the removal of the lesion.

Bronchial carcinoid is the most frequent cause of Cushing's syndrome due to ectopic ACTH production. The authors report a case of bronchial carcinoid which diagnosis was difficult because of the presence of pulmonary mycosis, that determined a hypercorticosuprarenalism. Medical treatment with octreotide, ketoconazolo and mitotane was useless, and bilateral suprarenalectomy was performed.

Objective: To assess the hypotensive and antiarrhythmic effect of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and its impact on hypertensive crises and heart rhythm abnormalities resulting from surgery to remove pheochromocytoma.
Patients And Methods: A prospective study of 7 patients with pheocromocytoma who were scheduled for unilateral (4) or bilateral (3) suprarenalectomy prior to treatment with phenoxybenzamine and propranolol. The anesthetic procedure was the same for all patients, as was monitoring: ECG, digital pulse oximetry, capnography, direct recording of arterial pressure by a catheter in the left radial artery and a Swan-Ganz fiber optic catheter in the pulmonary artery to measure pulmonary pressures and mixed venous oxygen saturation.
