How to treat adenoma of the lateral branch of the left adrenal gland

Left adrenal gland adenoma, if it has no endocrine function and the diameter is less than 4cm, it can be observed clinically without special treatment; however, if it is an adenoma with endocrine function or the diameter of adenoma with no endocrine function is more than 4cm, then it is recommended to be treated by surgery.
1. Clinical observation: If the adrenal adenoma is small in size and has no endocrine function, it can be treated without special treatment, and it is enough to go to the hospital regularly for ultrasound or CT to find out the changes of the adenoma.
2. Surgery: If the adenoma has endocrine function, it may lead to hypertension, hypokalemia, menstrual disorders and so on, so it is necessary to consider surgical treatment, usually laparoscopic adrenalectomy can be chosen. In addition, surgical resection is also recommended for larger adenomas without endocrine function, as the larger size may cause pressure on the surrounding tissues and organs.
Overall, if the examination finds the presence of adrenal adenoma, you need to actively go to the hospital for further endocrine examination and targeted treatment according to the type of adenoma.
