Despite potential confounders, adrenalectomy exhibited statistically significant superior LC and OS compared to SBRT in managing adrenal metastases, while both treatment methods displayed acceptable toxicity profiles. However, patient selection bias must be taken into account when directly comparing the two therapy modalities. Nevertheless, the study provides new and important results for the scientific and medical communities regarding oncological outcomes after SBRT or surgical resection of adrenal metastases.
