ACROMEGALY: A CASE REPORT WITH MRI FINDINGS

Öz

Acromegaly is a rare metabolic disorder that develops with over secretion of growth hormone (GH) after the epiphyseal plates are closed. Acromegaly starts insidiously and progresses very slowly. Signs and symptoms of growth hormone elevation may not be noticed for years. Jaw enlargement, swelling of the hands and feet, prominent facial bones, facial roughness, nasal enlargement, tongue enlargement, deepening of the voice, snoring and sleep apnea, skin thickening, excessive and malodorous sweating are some of the clinical changes. Changes in acromegaly such as macroglossia, diastemas, class III malocclusion, condylar growth, mandibular enlargement and thickening of facial tissues are familiar for dentists. Dental clinicians can play an important role in the diagnosis of acromegaly or other systemic diseases with careful examination and history.
