Adrenal Surgery in Lahore

Adrenal surgery covers the removal of one or both adrenal glands when a growth, an overactive gland, or a suspected cancer needs treatment. Dr. Shehryar Niazi offers laparoscopic adrenalectomy at both the Lahore and Bhakkar clinics.

Keyhole surgery for adrenal tumors

Adrenal tumors are small growths with outsized effects: blood pressure that no combination of tablets controls, sudden sweating spells, potassium that keeps dropping. When hormone tests and scans point to an adrenal cause, removing the gland cures what years of medicine could not.

The adrenal glands sit deep above each kidney, which makes them ideal for laparoscopic surgery. At Farooq Hospital DHA, adrenalectomy is done through a few small ports with a short stay, in coordination with the endocrinologist managing your hormone work up.

The work up comes first

No adrenal operation should happen on a scan alone. Blood and urine hormone tests decide whether the tumor is functioning, and some types need specific tablet preparation before it is safe to operate. The Lahore clinic walks you through that sequence so surgery happens at the right moment, not just the earliest one.

After adrenalectomy

Blood pressure and hormone levels are watched closely in the first days, because removing the source changes the body's balance quickly. Some patients come off tablets they have taken for years; others need short term hormone support while the remaining gland takes over. The endocrinologist stays involved throughout, and the small keyhole wounds heal within days.
