PlumX metrics:
The article presents a case of an adrenal adenoma (Conn’s syndrome) in a 50-year-old man with situs inversus with levocardia. Laparoscopic adrenalectomy was performed and the patient made a full recovery. It has been concluded that diagnostic assessment by means of imaging techniques providing details of the organ anatomy and the experience of the medical team are the key factors determining the outcome of such surgery.
