Abstract
Few cases are reported concerning the association between cerebral aneurysms and acromegaly, and this is the first case report documenting an increase in diameter of a cerebral aneurysm in persistent acromegaly. Persistently elevated GH plasma levels might promote an increase in diameter of cerebral aneurysms. An accurate follow-up in acromegalic patients is important, especially concerning the cerebrovascular system. Establishing the effectiveness and usefulness of this strategy will require future prospective studies.
