Hypoxemia secondary to sleep apnea is commonly seen in patients with acromegaly, and this alteration apparently leads to considerable morbidity and mortality among such patients. With the objective of identifying hypoxemia based on clinical data, we conducted a cross-sectional study of 34 patients

Pulmonary function was assessed in 11 patients with acromegaly, 8 of whom were previously treated by external pituitary irradiation. None of the patients had any overt respiratory ailment. Ventilatory function tests were normal in all patients and all had normal total lung capacity ranging from 75

BACKGROUND In patients with acromegaly, sleep apnea-related hypoxemia results in considerable morbidity and mortality. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the relative weight of pathogenic factors in predicting such hypoxemia. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, 34 acromegaly patients were submitted to

OBJECTIVE To investigate the characteristics of difficult intubation and identify novel efficient predictors in patients with acromegaly. METHODS Patients with either untreated acromegaly or non-functional pituitary adenomas were enrolled. Patients with acromegaly underwent hormone assays, upper

Increase in lung size has been described in acromegalic patients, but data on respiratory muscle function and control of breathing are relatively scarce. Lung volumes, arterial blood gas tensions, and respiratory muscle strength and activation during chemical stimulation were investigated in a group

It has long been known, that irregular, heavy snoring and daytime sleepiness are common features of acromegaly. Only recently has the high incidence (30-60%) and clinical relevance of the sleep apnoea underlying these symptoms been recognized. Both diseases have a group of common symptoms and

Although obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) occurs commonly in acromegaly, we have recently reported an unexpectedly high prevalence of central sleep apnea (CSA) in these patients. Acromegalic patients with CSA have increased growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) levels compared

Examination of the cardiovascular apparatus (cv) of 25 acromegalic patients revealed an increased incidence of cardiovascular pathology as against normal individuals. Acromegalic patients with arterial hypertension (AH) show a twice higher incidence of ischemic cardiopathy, cardiomegaly with obvious

Respiratory disorders are common and important complications in acromegaly. Patients suffering from acromegaly display a 1.6-3.3 fold increase in mortality rate, which is due to respiratory disorders in 25% of cases. In these patients, mortality for lung disease is 2-3 fold higher than in the
