Sasagawa Y, et al. - Researchers performed analysis and comparison of the results of transnasal transsphenoidal surgery (TTS) in elderly and younger patients. Analysis of 87 consecutive patients (24 elderly and 63 younger patients) with acromegaly who underwent TTS suggested TTS as a safe treatment for younger as well as elderly patients with acromegaly. Even in elderly patients, significant improvement in comorbidities was noted with successful removal. Elderly group and the younger group displayed similar growth hormone remission rate.
