Quality of life questionnaires in patients with acromegaly: a scoping review
This review explores the use of PROMs in assessing HRQoL in acromegaly patients, emphasizing the need for specific, validated, and culturally adapted tools addressing symptoms and treatment impact. We propose a novel domain-based classification to overcome existing limitations of instruments and improve their presentation in future studies. This study provides a synthesis that helps advance research and guide clinical practices around HRQoL in acromegaly management.
