Acromegaly is a rare, chronic hormonal condition caused by a benign pituitary tumour that produces excess growth hormone over many years, leading to gradual enlargement of the hands, feet, and facial features, along with a range of metabolic and cardiovascular complications. Because the changes develop slowly, diagnosis is often delayed by several years after symptoms first appear. The condition is treatable: with the right combination of surgery, medications, and — when needed — radiotherapy, growth hormone and IGF-1 levels can usually be brought back to normal, symptoms improve, and the risk of long-term complications is significantly reduced. Treatment is individualised and best delivered by a multidisciplinary team experienced in pituitary disease, with lifelong monitoring recommended even after successful treatment.
Endoscopic surgery through the nose to remove the growth-hormone-producing pituitary tumour — the guideline-recommended first step for most patients, offering the best chance of remission when the tumour is accessible.
