Abstract

Growth hormone-secreting pituitary adenoma is a common intracranial benign tumor, characterized by excessive production of growth hormone, which leads to acromegaly or giant disease. An abnormal increase in growth hormone can induce glucose metabolism disorder, which is often diagnosed and treated as type 2 diabetes, because of uncontrollable hyperglycemia, delaying the treatment of the primary disease. This paper reports the diagnosis and treatment data of a patient with growth hormone-secreting pituitary adenoma who was first diagnosed as having diabetes, and reviews the related literature to facilitate a better understanding of the disease.

糖尿病继发于生长激素分泌垂体腺瘤。

垂体生长激素腺瘤是一种常见的颅内良性肿瘤，其特点是生长激素分泌过多，导致肢端肥大或巨症。生长激素异常升高可诱发糖代谢紊乱，常因无法控制的高血糖而被诊断和治疗为2型糖尿病，延误了原发疾病的治疗。本文报道1例首次诊断为糖尿病的垂体生长激素腺瘤患者的诊断和治疗资料，并复习相关文献，以便更好地了解该疾病。
