Acromegaly definitely. in children it is giantism. The pituitary gland secrets growth hormone thus causing an excess.
2 :
Diabetes mellitus = sugar diabetes, nothing to do with the pituitary except sometimes a side effect of hormonal disfunction Diabetes insipidus = correct answer - listed as a side effect of pituitary surgery and happens, but not always, not for long, so the question is strange, and can also happen on its own myxedema - thyroid related skin disorder acromegaly - excess growth hormone caused by an adenoma (so disagree with the other responder)
