Abstract

Acromegaly is a polysymptomatic disease with multiple comorbidities, among which gastric and colonic disorders are common. In acromegaly excess production of the growth hormone (GH) and an insulinlike growth factor type 1 (IGF-1) is observed that leads to increased prevalence of colonic diverticula, gastric and colonic polyps, polyps of gallbladder and also a colorectal cancer. Identification of these intestine diseases in persons of young age, and also a combination them with other possible symptoms of acromegaly demands hormonal investigation for acromegaly exclusion. On the other hand, all patients with proved acromegaly need to conduct examination of gastrointestinal tract.
