Abstract

Surgical and non-surgical conditions of the adrenal cortex and medulla are presented. Besides general principles of operative treatment (e.g. surgical approach, safe operative technique, bilateral exploration) specific aspects associated with this procedure in childhood are discussed. The perioperative management and pharmacotherapeutical preparation (e.g. hormonal substitution) are emphasized.
