Adrenal surgery in England: better outcomes in high volume practices
Adrenal surgery is performed by a variety of surgical specialities in differing environments and volumes. International data suggest that there is a correlation between adrenal surgery volume and outcomes but there are no UK data to support this or UK surgical guidelines.

A review of the outcomes for adrenal surgery in England was performed to correlate outcomes with the volume of surgeon practice.
