Acromegaly Presenting With Cricoarytenoid Joint Arthropathy
Excess growth hormone in acromegaly induces characteristic acral and soft tissue overgrowth (particularly in the face and hands), arthropathies, as well as cardiovascular and metabolic complications. Similar proliferative changes can occur in the larynx, where hypertrophy of the arytenoid and cricoid cartilages may impair vocal fold mobility.
