ABSTRACT
A 60-year-old woman with acromegaly associated with sleep apnea was treated with the somatostatin analogue SMS 201-995 (Sandoz) for several months. Growth hormone levels were normalized and a rapid improvement in sleep apnea was controlled with polygraphic nocturnal monitoring. Hypophysectomy seems to have variable effects on sleep apnea in acromegaly. The origin of obstructive apnea in acromegaly is therefore unclear.
