Acromegaly is a severe neuroendocrine disease that develops when the pituitary gland produces excess growth hormone (GH). Acromegaly is not only a cosmetic problem. Hypersecretion of GH leads to variety complications, decreased quality of life, shortening the expected lifespan due to development of severe cardiovascular complications. Timely diagnosis and adequate treatment can reduce mortality by 2-5 times and medical therapy deservedly plays an important role in treatment of patients with acromegaly when radical surgical treatment cannot be performed. We present a first Russian experience of acromegaly patient treatment with new preparation - Somatulin Autogel, with analysis of its favorable effects on clinical and metabolic manifestations of the disease.
