In our study, we assess the adrenal morphology and function in a series of patients with acromegaly and possible associations with the activity of the disease and arterial hypertension.
Materials And Methods: Sixty patients with acromegaly, admitted to two endocrinology departments in the time period 2005-2010, were studied prospectively.
