Monitoring
Patients with acromegaly will require lifelong monitoring of growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) levels.[13] Once the initial treatment interventions (surgical, medical, and radiotherapy, as required) have remediated or significantly improved the disease state, regular monitoring of disease-related parameters is recommended. Medical complications of acromegaly also require ongoing monitoring and treatment.[26]
