Abstract：
:The treatment of acromegaly is based on surgery, drugs, and radiotherapy as a third-line option. Fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (FSRT) is a new technique with a need for long-term evaluation. The purpose of the study was to evaluate long-term results of FSRT in acromegaly. Overall, 34 patients [sex ratio 1.12, age 45 (5-65) years] with a pituitary adenoma of 24.5 (9-76) mm including 20 invasive tumors were treated by radiotherapy in fractionated stereotactic conditions delivering 50 gy in 27 sessions. Baseline growth hormone (GH) and IGF1 levels were 18 (±14.5) and 632.6 (±339) µg/L, respectively. Indications of FSRT were failure of surgery and drug treatments (n = 30) or contraindication/refusal of surgery (n = 4). Hormonal control was defined by normal age- and sex-adjusted IGF1. Remission was defined by hormonal control after withdrawal of drugs for a minimum of three consecutive months. Data were analyzed in SPSS software with a significance level at p < 0.05. After a mean follow-up of 152 months, hormonal control was achieved in 33 patients (97 %) with withdrawal of drugs in 13 patients (38.2 %) without any recurrence. Factors found to be significantly associated to remission in a multivariate Cox regression were lower baseline hormone levels (GH and IGF1) and smaller tumor size. Tumor control was achieved in all patients. Acquired hypopituitarism after radiotherapy was the main side effect reported with a rate of 39 %. FSRT seems to be an effective and well tolerated third-line treatment of acromegaly, particularly adapted to macro adenomas treatment.
