Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Men and women between ages 18 and 75 2. Diagnosis of an adrenal tumor/pathology planned for a minimally invasive adrenalectomy at the department of endocrine surgery at the Cleveland Clinic. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Requirement for an open adrenalectomy based on imaging studies suggesting an aggressive cancer. 2. The presence of extensive surgical history precluding a minimally invasive approach to be undertaken. 3. Patients planned for a partial, rather than a complete adrenalectomy, as the former is a much easier procedure. 4. Patients planned for a posterior adrenalectomy (these would be patients with an extensive surgical history with significant intra-abdominal adhesions and those requiring bilateral adrenalectomy). 5. Mental incapacity or language barrier 6. Any condition, unwillingness, or inability, not covered by any of the other exclusion criteria, which, in the study clinician's opinion, might jeopardize the subject's safety or compliance with the protocol
