[Preoperative diagnostics in patients with adrenal tumors].
The aim of the study was analysis of preoperative diagnostics of patients who underwent laparoscopic adrenalectomy. In the preoperative diagnostics in 10 patients (22.2%) pheochromocytoma was found, in 8 (17.8%) Conn's syndrome, in 4 (8.9%) Cushing's syndrome and in 1 (2.2%) adrenal virilization. Full accordance between histopathological findings and preoperative diagnosis was achieved in 91% of cases. Four cases of discrepancy were: 1 false positive preoperative diagnosis of aldosteronoma, 1 false positive and 2 false negative diagnosis of pheochromocytoma.
