The average diameter of the treated adrenal metastases was 3.0 \u00b1 1.6\u2009cm. The treatment outcomes, including presence of residual tumours, technical success rate, recurrence rate, and complications, were evaluated.

The rate of residual disease was significantly lower in the group with tumour size\u00a0&amp;lt;3\u2009cm than the group with tumour size\u00a0\u22653\u2009cm (p = 0.025). The severe complication rate was 4.3%, and the mild complication rate was 48%, with intraoperative hypertensive crisis as the most frequently observed complication (27.3%).
