Acromegaly is a rare hormonal disorder that occurs when the pituitary gland produces excessive amounts of growth hormone (GH) after the growth plates have closed. This excess GH leads to the enlargement and thickening of bones, tissues, and organs, causing a range of symptoms.
Acromegaly is typically caused by a noncancerous tumor called an adenoma that develops in the pituitary gland. This tumor causes excessive production of growth hormone, leading to the symptoms of acromegaly. In some cases, the cause may be non-pituitary tumors or genetic conditions that affect the production or action of growth hormone.
Acromegaly is characterized by the following symptoms, which develop gradually over time:

Book AppointmentCauses of Acromegaly :
Acromegaly is caused by the overproduction of growth hormone (GH) by the pituitary gland. The most common cause is a noncancerous tumor called an adenoma, which develops within the pituitary gland and leads to excessive GH secretion. In rare cases, acromegaly can be caused by tumors outside the pituitary gland, known as ectopic tumors, or by a genetic disorder that affects the production or action of GH.
