Ectopic Acromegaly

Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 1992
Ectopic acromegaly is a rare syndrome (less than 1% of acromegalic patients) caused by ectopic growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) or growth hormone (GH)-producing tumors. Its recognition is clinically important because acromegaly may be a symptom of an aggressive tumor, and different therapeutic approaches are required.
