Official Title: Anesthesiological Management of Hemodynamics and Gas Exchange for Retroperitoneal Adrenalectomies

Brief Summary: This study is a prospective, perioperative evaluation of hemodynamic and respiratory parameters in patients undergoing retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomies.

Detailed Summary: Due to their underlying disease, patients with adrenal tumors are prone to episodes of hyper- and hypotension. Furthermore, excessive hypercarbia and an increased arterial-alveolar CO2 difference can be seen during these operations.
