The high prevalence of obesity is associated with diverse health problems, including endocrine disorders. Laparoscopic adrenalectomy has become the preferred approach for removal of the adrenal gland, but several authors still debate the role of laparoscopic adrenalectomy in pheochromocytoma. We describe a case of a morbidly obese man (weight, 142 kg; body mass index, 40.2 kg/m(2)) who underwent elective laparoscopic adrenalectomy for a large right pheochromocytoma without incidences.
肥胖症的高发与多种健康问题有关，包括内分泌紊乱。腹腔镜肾上腺切除术已成为切除肾上腺的首选方法，但仍有几位作者对腹腔镜肾上腺切除术在嗜铬细胞瘤中的作用存在争议。我们描述了一例病态肥胖患者（体重 142 公斤；体重指数 40.2 公斤/平方米），他因右侧巨大嗜铬细胞瘤行择期腹腔镜肾上腺切除术，无并发症。
