Micromegaly and Discrepancy Between Growth Hormone and IGF1 at the Diagnosis and Follow-up of Acromegalic Patients

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The diagnosis and the follow-up of acromegalic patients are based on the mesurement of Growth hormone (GH) and IGF1 rates. However, the literature described some cases of patient for whom the investigators observed a discrepancy between GH and IGF1 rates. Since the acromegaly is a rare disease and this phenomenon concerns about 30% of these patients, there is a lack of investigations about consequences that this discordance may induces. In this study, the investigators aimed at assessing if patients with discordance between GH and IGF1 rates present a different risk of recurrence and complications related to acromegaly, from patients with concordant results.
