Adrenal Surgery

Conditions like adrenal tumors, pheochromocytomas, and hyperaldosteronism can disrupt hormonal balance and overall health.

Understanding Your Condition

Diagnosis

A precise diagnosis is critical for successful treatment and involves:

Blood Tests: To measure hormone levels, including cortisol, aldosterone, and catecholamines.
24-Hour Urine Collection: To assess hormone excretion and detect abnormalities.
Imaging Studies: CT scans or MRIs to identify adrenal tumors or abnormalities.
Adrenal Vein Sampling: A specialized test to determine if one or both glands are affected.

What to do

Treatment Options

Dr. Hubbard specializes in advanced surgical techniques, including:

  • Laparoscopic Adrenalectomy: A minimally invasive approach with smaller incisions, less pain, and faster recovery.
  • Open Surgery: For larger or complex adrenal tumors requiring more extensive access.
