Acromegaly

Acromegaly is a rare hormonal disorder caused by the overproduction of growth hormone (GH) in adulthood. It typically occurs due to a benign tumor (adenoma) of the pituitary gland, although in rare cases, it can result from tumors elsewhere in the body that produce growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH). Excess GH leads to abnormal growth of tissues and organs, resulting in characteristic physical changes such as enlargement of the hands, feet, and facial features. Other symptoms may include joint pain, enlarged organs (such as the heart), thickening of the skin, sleep apnea, fatigue, headaches, and vision problems.
