The problems of positive and differential clinic-pathologic diagnosis, the optimal therapeutic decision and importance of surgery in a series of patients with adrenal gland (AG) diseases was studied. ⋯ 1--The surgical diseases of adrenal glands are difficult to diagnose and are based primarily on the clinical information's and confirmed by the hormonal and imagery examinations (errors are possible). 2--Operatory indications, especially for hyperplasic bilateral forms in Cushing's syndrome (one step or two steps surgery) must be very well documented and carefully established. 3--There are cases which impose recurrent operations. 4--A correct operative indication and technical surgery procedure are followed by good results. 5--The laparoscopic approach of the surgical lesions of the AG is a good alternative for the open surgical approach with the condition of a very correct indication. 6--Postoperative, the malignant lesions must be mandatory submitted to the adjuvant treatment.
