Abstract

Acromegalic phenotype is not always associated with increased IGF-1 and growth hormone levels. This condition, encountered occasionally, is known as pseudoacromegaly. Acromegalic phenotype may be a sequel of insulin resistance and is characterized by the preserved mitogenic effects of insulin in contrast to its defective metabolic effects. We report a case of insulin resistance related pseudoacromegaly case.

Özet

Akromegalik fenotip her zaman artmış IGF-1 ve büyüme hormonu düzeyleriyle ilişkili olmayıp bu durum psödoakromegali olarak adlandırılmaktadır. Akromegalinin fenotipik özelliklerinin insülin direnci olan hastalarda görülmesi enderdir. Bu durum insülinin metabolik etkilerinin bozulmasına karşı mitojenik etkilerinin korunmuş olmasının bir sonucu olarak görülebilmektedir. Bu yazımızda insülin direnci ile ilişkili bir psödoakromegali olgusunu sunuyoruz.
