Acromegaly
Ko te Acromegaly he ahuatanga e nui rawa ai te homone tipu (GH) o te tinana.
Ko te Acromegaly he ahuatanga onge. I puta mai i te wa e nui rawa ai te homone tupu o te pituitary gland. Ko te repe pituitary he repe endocrine iti ka piri ki raro o te roro. Ka whakahaerehia, ka hanga, ka whakaputa i nga homoni maha, tae atu ki te homoni tipu.
I te nuinga o te wa ko te puku kore (mate) o te repe pituitary ka tukuna he nui rawa te homone tipu. I etahi wa, ka taea te tuku i nga pukupuku pituitary.
I roto i nga tamariki, ko te nui o te GH ka puta ai te gigantism kaore i te acromegaly.
Ko nga tohu o te haehae e whai ake nei:
- Kakara tinana
- Te toto i roto i te turanga
- Hinengaro huringa Carpal
- Te whakaheke i te kaha o te uaua (ngoikore)
- Te whakaheke i te tirohanga taiao
- He ngoikore ngawari
- Te teitei teitei (ka tiimata ana te mahi GH nui i te wa o te tamarikitanga)
- Te werawera nui
- Ānini
- Whakanuia te ngakau, e ngoikore ai ranei
- Urutapu
- Te mamae o te kauae
- Te mamae o te hononga, te korenga o te nekehanga o te hononga, te pupuhi o nga waahi ngutu huri noa i te hononga
- Nga koiwi nui o te kanohi, te kauae me te arero nui, he niho tuuturu
- Waewae nui (huri i te rahi o te hu), ringaringa nui (whakarereke i te mowhiti me te rahi karapu)
- Repe nui i roto i te kiri (repe sebaceous) meinga kiri kiri, matotoru o te kiri, tohu kiri (tupu)
- Waatea moe
- Whanui nga maihao, maiharo ranei, me te pupuhi, ka whero, ka mamae
Ko etahi atu tohu ka pa pea ki tenei mate:
- Koroni polyps
- Te nui o te tipu o nga makawe wahine (hirsutism)
- Te toto toto tiketike
- Momo mate huka 2
- Whakanui thyroid
- Taumaha taumaha
Ka whakamātautau te Kaitiaki Hauora i te tinana, ka paatai mo o tohu.
Ko nga whakamatau e whai ake nei ka whakahaua kia whakatutukihia te taatai o te koromegaly me te tirotiro he aha nga raru.
- Te kūhuka o te toto
- Te tipu tupu me te whakamatauhia te pehi i te himoni tupu
- Ko te tipu tipu penei i te Insulin-1 (IGF-1)
- Prolactin
- Raina-hihi
- MRI o te roro, tae atu ki te repe pituitary
- Echocardiogram
- Koroneihana
- Akoranga moe
Ka whakahaua etahi atu whakamatautau kia tirohia mena kei te pai te mahi o te toenga o te repe pituitary.
Ko te taahiraa hei tango i te puku pituitary e mate ana i tenei ahuatanga he maha nga waa ka whakatika i te GH rereke. I etahi wa, he nui rawa te tumo kia nekehia katoatia ana kaore te rongoa o te mate i te rongoa. I tenei waa, ka taea te whakamahi i nga rongoa me te radiation (radiotherapy) ki te hamani i te whakaorotanga.
Ko etahi taangata he pukupuku tera he uaua rawa atu ki te tango ma te pokanga e tukuna ana ki nga rongoa kaore i te pokanga. Ko enei rongoa ka aukati i te mahi GH mai i te repe pituitary gland hei aarai ranei i te mahi a te GH ki etahi atu waahanga o te tinana.
Whai muri i te whakamaimoa, me haere tonu koe ki te tirotiro i to kaiwhakarato kia tino mohio kei te pai te mahi o te repe pituitary, me te kore e hoki mai ano te acromegaly. E taunaki ana i nga arotake-a-tau.
Ma enei rauemi pea e whakaatu etahi korero mo te haurangi:
- National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases - www.niddk.nih.gov/health-information/endocrine-diseases/acromegaly
- National Organization for Rare Raruraru - rarediseases.org/rare-diseases/acromegaly
He angitu te taatai pituitary i te nuinga o nga taangata, i te rahinga o te puku me te wheako o te neurosurgeon me nga pukupuku pituitary.
Ki te kore he maimoatanga, ka kino rawa atu nga tohu. Ko nga ahuatanga penei i te toto toto nui, te mate huka, me te mate manawa ka puta mai.
Karangahia to kaiwhakarato mena:
- Kei i a koe nga tohu o te haehae
- Kaore e pai ake o tohu ki te rongoa
Kaore e taea te aukati i te Acromegaly. Ma te maimoatanga wawe pea e aukati te mate kia kino ake, kia kore ai e raru.
