Popis: This study reviews the surgical management of adrenal disease over a 23 year period in a Dublin teaching hospital. Nineteen patients were diagnosed as having either Medullary or Cortical disease. Ultrasound and CAT Scan proved highly accurate in pre-operative tumour localisation. This analysis highlights the atypical presentation of phaeochromocytoma, the accuracy of Ultrasound and CAT Scan in tumour localisation and the importance of peri-operative monitoring.
