Surgical Outcomes and Complications of Patients With Acromegaly in Qatar

ETT surgery remains an effective primary treatment for acromegaly. Favorable biochemical remission rates and tumor resection outcomes are observed in patients managed at HGH. The predominance of densely granulated somatotroph adenomas in this cohort may have contributed to the observed favorable surgical outcomes. Further large multicenter studies are warranted to validate these conclusions.

Abstract

ETT surgery remains an effective primary treatment for acromegaly. Favorable biochemical remission rates and tumor resection outcomes are observed in patients managed at HGH. The predominance of densely granulated somatotroph adenomas in this cohort may have contributed to the observed favorable surgical outcomes. Further large multicenter studies are warranted to validate these conclusions.
