Sažetak

Adrenalectomy is a surgical method of removing one or both adrenal glands that is chosen in cases of adrenal neoplasms and the consequent hyperadrenocorticism Three approaches are described: ventral median, lateral and laparoscopic. Adrenal neoplasms can be divided into adrenal carcinomas, adrenal adenomas and pheochromocytomas, and in dogs we encounter all three types. The typical clinical signs of hyperadrenocorticism (polyuria, polydipsia, polyphagia, pendulous abdomen, skin alopecia, hyperpigmentation and / or calcinosis cutis) are very common. Once the adrenal gland is released from its ligaments on all sides and the v. phrenicoabdominalis is ligated at its entrance to the caudal vena cava, the gland can be removed. In addition to this surgical treatment of adrenal neoplasms, drug treatment is also possible, which usually consists of the use of trilostane, mitotane and ketoconazole. If the dog survives the first, most critical 24 hours after surgery, the prognosis is relatively favorable, with a survival time of 7 to 25 months with adherence to certain guidelines, such as resting the animal, avoiding stress and preventing the dog from licking the wound.
