What's The Definition Of The Medical Condition Inappropriate Adrenocorticotropic Hormone Secretion?

Inappropriate secretion of anterior pituitary gland hormones. The most common hormones involved in over-secretion are SOMATOTROPIN (which may cause ACROMEGALY) and PROLACTIN (which results in HYPERPROLACTINEMIA).
