Objective To summarize the effect of surgical treatment and nursing strategies of patients with growth hormone-secreting pituitary adenoma complicated by sleep apnea syndrome. Method Forty-three cases with growth hormone-secreting pituitary adenoma complicated by sleep apnea syndrome underwent surgical treatment in our department , with their history retrospectively analyzed to compare the hormone levels and blood oxygen saturation between pre-and post-operation. Result After the operation, both levels of the hormone and blood oxygen saturation were improved than those before operation; the incidence of sleep apnea syndrome was also lower than that before operation (all P<0.05). Conclusions Surgical treatment is better for patients with growth hormone-secreting pituitary adenoma complicated by sleep apnea syndrome. Reasonable treatment and effective nursing are favorable for the recovery of patients.
