Hyperpituitarism Physiological

Hyperpituitarism, or Kong-Grule-Kornfung syndrome (lat. hyperpituitarism), is a pathological clinical syndrome manifested by excessive secretion by the pituitary gland of one or more hormones of the anterior pituitary gland, resulting in hyperfunction of the endocrine system as a whole and a characteristic combination of trophic and autonomic disorders. The hyperpituitic gland normally produces significantly less growth hormone. With its increased secretion, the patient becomes taller than his natural height and develops various trophic disorders.



Hyperpituitasm is one of the most serious disorders of hormonal regulation in humans. This disease is characterized by excessive production of hormones by the pituitary gland, which is the main regulator of the body's hormonal function. Hyperfunction of the pituitary gland leads to significant disruption of the functioning of many organs and systems of the body, as well as to the development of various symptoms and complications. In this article we will look at physiological hyperpituitarim, its symptoms, causes and treatment.
