No results posted yet for this study

Summary

In this study, the investigators hypothesize that upfront gamma knife radiosurgery with drug therapy is superior in the treatment of growth hormone-secreting pituitary tumors after primary surgical treatment compared with the drug therapy alone. This study can provide useful clinical information in the treatment of patients with acromegaly.

Conditions

  • Acromegaly Due to Pituitary Adenoma

Interventions

RADIATION

Gamma knife radiosurgery

Minimum 25 Gy of marginal dose is applied for residual tumor or resection cavity. Depending on the size of tumor, the dose can be varied.

DRUG
