The association of the syndrome of sleep apnoea and acromegaly was described in the literature. However, so far no satisfactory explanation was given of the more frequent concomitant incidence of these diseases. The authors describe the disappearance of the sleep apnoea syndrome in a female patient after removal of an intrasellar microadenoma of the pituitary with overproduction of growth hormone.
