description OBJECTIVETo study the effect of octreotide therapy on endometriotic lesions in a patient with coexisting endometriosis and acromegaly. INTERVENTION PATIENTA 34-year-old female was diagnosed with acromegaly and coexisting endometriosis. Post-surgical resection of the tumor, patient was initiated on octreotide therapy. RESULTSThere was improvement in menstrual bleeding as IGF1 levels decreased with Octreotide therapy. Resolution of the endometriotic lesions was observed during follow up. CONCLUSIONIn this unusual case, the treatment of acromegaly concurred with regression in the endometriotic lesions. Causal or incidental association cannot be inferred from the present case.
