摘要：

The role of thoracoscopy for the management of intrathoracic diseases has expanded with advancement in endoscopic instrumentation and technology. We report a case of thoracoscopic transdiaphragmatic biopsy of an adrenal gland for metastatic carcinoma. The procedure was uncomplicated and the patient was discharged on the second postoperative day. The morbidity of traditional approaches for adrenal operation was avoided. Thoracoscopy may be a useful approach in selected patients for adrenal operation.
