This study highlights the significance of considering pituitary neuroendocrine tumor volume when determining the appropriate line of therapy for patients with acromegaly. The findings suggest that, although tumor volume may assist in predicting the need for more aggressive treatment strategies, it is not a reliable indicator of disease persistence following surgical intervention. Further research is warranted to investigate additional factors influencing acromegaly treatment outcomes to enhance patient care.
本研究强调了在为肢端肥大症患者确定合适的治疗方案时，考虑垂体神经内分泌肿瘤体积的重要性。研究结果表明，尽管肿瘤体积可能有助于预测是否需要更积极的治疗策略，但它并不是手术干预后疾病持续存在的可靠指标。有必要进行进一步研究，以调查影响肢端肥大症治疗结果的其他因素，从而改善患者护理。
