To analyze the clinical features of patients with anterior hypopituitarism (HP) complicated with cirrhosis, and to explore the effects of growth hormone supplementation on liver and lung function. A total of 11 patients with HP complicated with cirrhosis admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2016 to December 2022 were included in the study, including 8 males and 3 females, aged [M(Q1, Q3)]31 (20, 37) years. There were 6 patients with pituitary stalk interruption syndrome, 4 patients after craniopharyngioma resection, and 1 patient after germinal cell tumor chemoradiotherapy. Cirrhosis appeared at [M(Q1, Q3)]7 (1, 16) years after the diagnosis of HP. There were 7 cases complicated with hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS). The liver and lung function of 5 patients were improved significantly after the addition of growth hormone, and the arterial partial pressure of oxygen increased from (47±11) mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) to (84±12) mmHg. Timely supplementation of growth hormone can improve the symptoms of fatty liver, cirrhosis and HPS, and postpone or even avoid the transplantation of liver and other organs.
分析垂体前叶功能减退症（HP）合并肝硬化患者的临床特点，探讨生长激素补充对患者肝肺功能的影响。将2016年1月至2022年12月就诊于北京协和医院的HP合并肝硬化的11例患者纳入研究，其中男8例，女3例，年龄［M（Q1，Q3）］为31（20，37）岁。其中垂体柄中断综合征患者6例，颅咽管瘤切除术后4例，生殖细胞瘤放化疗后患者1例。患者在HP确诊后［M（Q1，Q3）］7（1，16）年出现肝硬化。有7例并发肝肺综合征（HPS）。有5例患者在加用生长激素后肝肺功能明显改善，动脉血氧分压从（47±11）mmHg（1 mmHg=0.133 kPa）升至（84±12）mmHg。可见HP患者及时补充生长激素可改善脂肪肝、肝硬化、HPS症状，延缓甚至避免肝脏等器官的移植手术。.
