Aims: Acromegaly is a rare disorder resulting from benign growth hormone secreting pituitary adenomas. Many factors affect long-term outcomes in acromegaly. In this study we aimed to investigate effects of hormonal status, morphological subtypes, immunohistochemical expression of pituitary hormones and Ki-67 labeling index on long-term outcomes in patients with acromegaly. Methods:. We collected the medical and pathological records of sixty-four patients who underwent surgery for growth hormone (GH) secreting somatotroph tumors between 2005-2017. Results: The remission rate after surgery was 48% (31/64) in all patients (33% for macroadenomas, 94% for microadenomas; p
