Adrenal Tumors – Advanced Diagnosis & Expert Management by Dr. Premkumar

Adrenal Tumors are growths that occur in the adrenal glands, which produce essential hormones such as cortisol, aldosterone, and adrenaline. These tumors can be benign or cancerous and may cause significant hormonal imbalance. Dr. Premkumar K, an experienced Uro-Oncologist and Reconstructive Urologist, provides accurate diagnosis, minimally invasive surgical expertise, and dedicated care for all types of adrenal tumors.

• Types of Adrenal Tumors – Adenomas, pheochromocytomas, adrenal cortical carcinoma, aldosterone-producing tumors, and cortisol-secreting tumors (Cushing’s syndrome).

• Symptoms – High blood pressure, weight gain, fatigue, palpitations, sweating, headaches, anxiety, muscle weakness, or hormonal imbalance. Some tumors may remain asymptomatic.

• Risk Factors – Genetic disorders, family history, endocrine syndromes, smoking, hypertension, and exposure to certain carcinogens.

• Diagnosis – Comprehensive hormonal evaluation, CT scan, MRI, PET-CT, adrenal venous sampling, and biochemical tests to determine functional or non-functional tumors.

• Minimally Invasive Surgery – Laparoscopic or Robotic Adrenalectomy ensures smaller incisions, reduced blood loss, minimal pain, and faster recovery for both benign and selected malignant tumors.

• Medical Management – Hormonal control, blood pressure regulation, and symptomatic treatment for functional tumors such as pheochromocytomas and hyperaldosteronism.

• Advanced Cancer Care – For adrenal cortical carcinoma and metastatic tumors, treatment may include surgery, targeted therapy, systemic medications, and multidisciplinary oncology support.

• Regular Follow-up – Post-treatment monitoring with hormone tests and imaging to ensure stability, prevent recurrence, and maintain long-term health.

With a collaborative approach involving endocrinologists, oncologists, radiologists, and surgical specialists, Dr. Premkumar K provides precise diagnosis and personalized treatment strategies for adrenal tumors, ensuring the best possible functional and long-term outcomes.

If you experience unexplained high blood pressure, excessive sweating, anxiety episodes, or hormonal imbalance, early evaluation is crucial. Consult Dr. Premkumar K for expert assessment and advanced management of Adrenal Tumors using the latest minimally invasive techniques.
