  • Title: Acromegaly identified in a patient with a complaint of malocclusion.
    Author: Sugata T, Myoken Y, Tanaka S.
    Journal: Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol Oral Radiol Endod; 1998 Jan; 85(1):44-6. PubMed ID: 9474613.
    Abstract:
    Acromegaly in a female patient was first diagnosed after a dental examination at which time the patient complained of the inability to incise properly. An elevated serum growth hormone level and enlarged sella turcica confirmed the diagnosis of acromegaly. Based on examination of her plaster study models, it was apparent the patient had been developing a change in her dentition for years.
