"There aro giants who never be- come acromegalic; there are :weenl0- galics who are not of great stature, 13ut its numerous cases giants become acromegalic, "Messrs. Brissaud and henry 'Moto have already insisted on the rela- tionship of these two abnormalities. According to P.

Never- theless, Sternberg's statistics show that 11011 the giants arb ncromegalle. "There are serious reasons for be- lieving that gigantism and acrome- galy am•e only two successive stages of the same development trouble. M. Meige maintains that gigantism shows itself in the period of growth and acromegaly when this period has ender!. In numerous observations the appearance of the first symptoms of acromegaly- was preceded by a Period of rapid growth in stature, sometimes gigantic. In other words, a tendency to gigantism often pre- cedes acromegaly.
