Acromegaly is a slowly progressive disease characterized by 30% increase of mortality rate for cardiovascular disease, respiratory complications and malignancies. The estimated prevalence of the disease is 40 cases/1000000 population with 3-4 new cases/1000000 population per year.

Clinical Endocrinology, 1987
SUMMARYA personal series of 256 cases of acromegaly/gigantism seen over a 20‐year period from 1963 is described. The insidious nature of the condition resulted in delay in diagnosis which was often made by a doctor when seeing the patient for an unrelated problem.

Subcellular mechanisms support the notion of an intrinsic pituitary defect in acromegaly, with elevated growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) levels that affect the cardiovascular and respiratory system, as well as neoplastic cell proliferative activity.

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.

Octreotide has dramatically changed the results of medical treatment of acromegaly. It is the reference drug for the pharmacological treatment of acromegaly, owing to its impressive efficacy in suppressing growth hormome secretion, and excellent compliance.
