Sommario/riassunto |
|
The early recognition of acromegaly can be a major challenge for general healthcare physicians or specialists, as signs and symptoms may be subtle. Available treatment modalities are diverse and include selective pituitary surgery, medical treatment with new effective drugs and radiotherapy. The multidisciplinary nature of successful control of this disease is reflected in this book, consisting of relatively short, easily assimilated chapters. |
