Popis: PurposeThis study aimed to assess the feasibility of synchronous bilateral laparoscopic or open cortical-sparing adrenalectomy (SB-LCSA or SB-OCSA) for bilateral pheochromocytomas (bPHEOs) in multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN2).MethodsAltogether, 31 patients (54.8% were women) were diagnosed with MEN2-related bPHEOs, and 29 of them underwent varying specific adrenalectomies. We systematically analyzed and evaluated their clinical profiles, mutation types, tumor histopathological features, and follow-up records.ResultsAll 31 patients with bPHEOs presented with RET-C634 (90.3%) and RET-M918T (9.7%) mutations, and the median age at initial presentation was 38 years (range, 23–78). bPHEOs were synchronous in 27 patients and metachronous in 4 (12.9%) patients. In total, 29 patients underwent initial cortical-sparing adrenalectomy (CSA) including 23 (79.3%) undergoing synchronous bilateral CSA (18 SB-LCSA and 5 SB-OCSA) and 6 (20.7%) undergoing metachronous CSA. SB-LCSA and synchronous surgery were associated with less bleeding volume and shorter length of hospital stay than SB-OCSA and metachronous surgery (all P’s
