Laparoscopic total adrenalectomy has become the standard treatment for adrenal mass. Meanwhile, there has been a growing trend toward laparoscopic adrenal-sparing surgery worldwide to avoid the risk and potential complications of adrenal insufficiency. The objectives of this study were to describe a retroperitoneoscopic adrenal tumor enucleation technique, to assess the clinical outcomes of this technique in the treatment of 20-40 mm nonsecreting adrenal tumor (NAT) with low potential of malignancy, and to provide a feasible choice for patients who have preference on resection. This study was a retrospective analysis of 61 patients with low potential of malignancy in 20-40 mm NAT identified at the first imaging examination or during follow-up. All patients were scheduled for planned enucleation adrenalectomy by a single surgeon between July 2016 and December 2020 in Xuanwu Hospital, Beijing, China. In all patients, retroperitoneoscopic surgery was performed via a retroperitoneoscopic process for all the patients. The crucial techniques of enucleation are presented in the video. Safety and feasibility factors of enucleation technique were measured for this study. No blood transfusion or organ injury was registered during the operation. The median operation time was 75 min, and the median blood loss was 35 mL. All operations were successfully performed without open conversion. A total of 58 patients received successful enucleation surgery. Three cases were converted to retroperitoneoscopic total adrenalectomy. In this study, surgical outcomes of retroperitoneoscopic enucleation adrenalectomy as a method to remove adrenal tumors were assessed. This procedure is a feasible and safe technique with the added benefit of preserving the remaining functional adrenal tissue.
