Brief Summary:
Early recognition of adrenal function deficit in patients undergoing multivisceral surgery including adrenalectomy for primitive retroperitoneal sarcomas
Detailed Description:
The extended multivisceral resection of retroperitoneum is the standard treatment for primary retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcomas. This procedure also includes the removal of the healthy adrenal gland ipsilateral to the tumor site.
The investigators think that a such extended surgical approach together with the removal of the adrenal gland may lead to a state of acute adrenal insufficiency and related hemodynamic instability.
In order to recognize this condition the investigators use a low dose ACTH test (Synacthen test) during the 1° and 10° post-operative days.
