Background: It remains uncertain whether hand-assisted laparoscopic adrenalectomy (HAL) has advantages in treating large pheochromocytomas (PHEOs). This study aimed to assess the feasibility and safety of HAL compared to laparoscopic adrenalectomy (LA).
Methods: We conducted a retrospective study on patients with PHEOs ≥6 cm who received HAL (n=16) and LA (n=20) at Shandong Provincial Hospital from January 2020 to January 2023.
