Postoperative GH and Degree of Reduction in IGF-1 Predicts Postoperative Hormonal Remission in Acromegaly
PurposeDetermine predictive factors for long-term remission of acromegaly after transsphenoidal resection of growth hormone (GH)-secreting pituitary adenomas.MethodsWe identified 94 patients who had undergone transsphenoidal resection of GH-secreting pituitary adenomas for treatment of acromegaly at...
