Lateral transperitoneal laparoscopic management for paragangliomas in para-aortic position: Surgical experience from case reports of three patients

Paragangliomas are a type of neuroendocrine tumour with catecholamine secretion outside of the adrenal medulla. These tumours are frequently found in the para-aortic region, which makes them difficult to manage laparoscopically. We herein present a case report of three patients with paragangliomas in a difficult superior para-aortic position.
