Kidney, Adrenal, Ureters, and Bladder






LEFT ADRENAL (LEFT ADRENALECTOMY)


INCISION

Reflect the chest plate superiorly and the abdominal wall inferiorly (see Figs. 3.2 and 5.1), remove the previously dissected organs, and reflect the bowel superiorly and to the right. This will give a good view of the retroperitoneum. Before entering the retroperitoneum, consider adrenal venous connections and lymphatic drainage (Fig. 8.1). Lymphatic drainage is shown by arrows. Notice proximity of the pancreas.



RIGHT ADRENAL GLAND (RIGHT ADRENALECTOMY)


INCISION

See incision under the section, “Left Adrenal (Left Adrenalectomy),” and prepare the cadaveric specimen similarly.
