observational study
Other interventionIn participants diagnosed with acromegaly, every patient to whom USG measurement methods are applied is followed by researchers before, during and after anesthesia applications, whether or not they are included in any study . Routine treatments that participants need will be fully implemented. Preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative follow-up data, which will be recorded observationally, will be used in this study.
