In Zusammenschau mit Akromegalie-verdächtigen anatomischen Auffälligkeiten können sie wichtiger Weichensteller für eine weitere endokrinologische Diagnostik sein. Wir berichten den Kasus eines Patienten, dessen schlafmedizinische Vorstellung zur Diagnosestellung einer Akromegalie führte. Full Text References Literatur 1 Holdaway IM, Rajasoorya C.
