AbstractLaparoscopic adrenalectomy was performed early in the second trimester of pregnancy in a woman with an aldosteronoma causing hypertension (254/154 mm Hg). The patient was later delivered of a healthy baby. With suitable precautions and timing, major laparoscopic surgery can be performed safely during pregnancy.
