description We report symptomatic cycling Cushing disease in a 11-year-old boy that was managed with simultaneous bilateral laparoscopic adrenalectomy. Positioning and the surgical technique have been fully described. Excellent results were achieved.

Post-operative recovery after laparoscopic technique is significantly shorter than the open technique.
