the interior side of the renal hilum and the undersurface of the adrenal gland; the adrenal gland was elevated and was kept at a sufficient tension to provide adequate space; the bottom of the adrenal gland was dissociated along the edge of the renal parenchyma; and the kidney was separated from the adrenal gland.

Compared to the traditional process, our adrenal gland-sparing surgery was directly performed on a horizontal plane. The dissection of the adrenal gland from the perirenal fat could reduce the influence of the upper pole of the kidney and the incidence of lacerations or partial resection of the adrenal gland. The upper pole of the kidney could be lifted after separation of the renal pedicle vessels, which could change the tension between the adrenal gland andEarth

Power and gas have been shut off in the area as engineers redirect sewage into the Clinton River after rainfall threatened to send it cascading into basements. The river isn't connected to any sources of drinking water for the area, and will "correct itself over a number of months" and filter out the sewage, Cannon said.

"It's a bad choice, but a better choice than having it go into our basements," he said.

The hole is still growing and authorities say the ground won't be safe enough for residents to return for at least two weeks. Gas and water have been shut off as engineers work to steady the sinkhole and start filling it back in.

This isn't the first time a sinkhole has struck the area: The same road caved
