Obstructive sleep apnoea in acromegaly: the role of craniofacial changes.
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is due to craniofacial changes and acromegaly. The question addressed by this study was whether growth hormone (GH) induced craniofacial changes might explain persisting OSA despite endocrine inactivity in acromegaly. Nineteen patients treated for acromegaly were examined cephalometrically for craniofacial changes and polysomnographically for OSA. Twelve patients ...

15 صفحه اولEffects of octreotide on sleep apnoea and tongue volume (magnetic resonance imaging) in patients with acromegaly.
OBJECTIVES Sleep apnoea has been consistently reported to occur in acromegaly. Both obstructive apnoeas, in which apnoeas are due to intermittent obstruction of the upper airways, as well as central apnoeas are known to occur. Because the relationship between disease activity and severity of sleep apnoea is currently unclear, we have performed a prospective study to address this issue. DESIGN...
