Analysis on influence of transsphenoidal approach pituitary adenoma resection in patients with complicating cardiomyopathy on serum growth hormone level and cardiac structural function / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the surgical treatment and clinical effect of growth hormone type pituitary tumor complica-ting cardiomyopathy .Methods Sixty-five cases of growth hormone type pituitary adenoma complicating cardiomyopathy in the hos-pital from June 2012 to June 2016 were selected and performed transsphenoidal approach pituitary adenoma resection .Then serum growth hormone level ,ECG results ,ultrasound cardiogram results and clinical symptoms were observed at 2 weeks after operation . Results The signs were significantly improved after surgery ,acromegaly and nasolabial hypertrophy were significantly improved , dizziness ,fatigue ,hypertension and hyperglycemia were significantly improved ;the average postoperative growth hormone level was (4 .37 ± 2 .03)μg/L ,which was significantly lower than (40 .27 ± 4 .18)μg/L before operation ,and the difference was statistically significant (P< 0 .01 );postoperative IVST ,LVIDd and LVPWT were significantly lower than those before operation ,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .01);postoperative average E/A and LVEF were significantly lower than those before operation ,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .01) .Conclusion Transsphenoidal pituitary tumor resection can re-duce the level of grow th hormone and improves the cardiac function .
