Abstract
Laparoscopic partial adrenalectomy is feasible, safe and effective in recurrent phaeochromocytoma, despite previous adrenal surgery and is technically easier if the previous approach had been laparoscopic as well. Patients with hereditary phaeochromocytoma are prone for recurrent tumours and may need repeated surgical procedures. Hence, minimally invasive approach is ideal for these patients.
