Article Synopsis
- - Acromegaly is a rare endocrine disorder, and understanding factors for biochemical remission (which ranges from 40% to 85%) is important for personalized treatment, especially after transsphenoidal surgery (TSS).
- - In a study of 61 acromegaly patients, the average age at diagnosis was 38, with a majority being female; the biochemical remission rate after 3 months post-TSS was 34.4%, despite significant tumor characteristics.
- - The findings highlighted that larger tumors, higher hormone levels, and advanced Knosp grades were associated with lower remission rates, while traditional immunohistochemical markers did not effectively predict outcomes.
