Dr. Tina C. Rodrigue presents a surgical case of a 18 year old with giganticism, or acromegaly, who grew 8 inches in one year due to an unusually large pituitary adenoma. Dr. Rodrigue narrates her surgical resection of the tumor which was complex due to its size and proximity to the cavernous sinus and carotid artery.
