Abstract. Five family members over 3 generations had isolated functional pituitary adenomas diagnosed. In four cases acromegaly was diagnosed, and in the fifth galactorrhoea from prolactin excess was the presenting feature. A prominent feature of the affected members tumours were histological finding of either atypical mixed cell or undifferentiated ...

Acromegaly is due to excessive production of growth hormone (GH), generally by a pituitary GH-secreting adenoma. Its prevalence is estimated at 40-130 cases per million inhabitants. Acromegaly is characterized by slowly progressive acquired somatic disfigurement (mainly involving the face and extremities) and systemic manifestations. The rheumatologic,

SUMMARYAn uncle and nephew with acromegaly are described. Two other families with acromegaly have been reported by others and three other possible cases are reviewed. Our patients are unlikely to form part of the multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) type 1 syndrome because of the absence of other endocrine disease at an advanced age.

Acromegaly is a chronic debilitating disease caused by growth hormone (GH) hypersecretion, usually from a pituitary adenoma. It is frequently diagnosed after many years of active GH hypersecretion, and causes significant morbidity and mortality due to cardiac, pulmonary and musculoskeletal changes.

Acromegaly may result from ectopic production of the hypothalamic peptide, growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH), or growth hormone (GH) itself. Hypothalamic, carcinoid, and pancreatic tumors account for most of these cases. The pathogenesis, etiology, and diagnosis of acromegaly caused by these nonpituitary tumors is discussed, and an approach to ...
