The Evaluation of Breast Findings Detected Through Different Visualisation Techniques in Acromegaly Patients- A Retrospective Study

CONCLUSION: Benign and malign breast lesions were found out to be similar to the control group, although breast density rate was detected to be higher in acromegaly patients. A regular follow-up is required in these patients via suitable breast visualization techniques considering their age and clinical status due to mass formation risk derived from increased GH level and extreme breast density despite the absence of any detected breast lesion frequency in acromegaly patients.PMID:34530525 | DOI:10.3906/sag-2105-35
