Adrenalectomy for Metastasis: The Impact of Primary Histology on Survival Outcome.

ABSTRACT: Adrenalectomy is commonly considered a curative treatment in case of adrenal gland as site of metastasis. In the present study, we evaluated the impact of primary tumor histology on survival outcomes after a minimally invasive adrenal mastectomy for a solitary metachronous metastasis. From May 2004 to August 2020, we prospectively collected data on minimally invasive adrenalectomies whose pathological examination showed a metastasis. All patients only received metastasectomies that were performed with curative intent, or to achieve non-evidence of disease status. Adjuvant systemic therapy was not administered in any case. Cancer-specific survival (CSS) was assessed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Univariable and multivariable Cox regression analyses were applied to identify independent pred
