Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of impulse control disorders (ICD) and psychiatric symptoms in patients with acromegaly receiving dopamine agonists (DA) in comparison with those with prolactinoma, nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas (NFA), and healthy controls (HC). Design: Forty patients with acromegaly, 40 with prolactinoma, 38 with NFA, and 32 HCs were included. All patients and controls were evaluated using the revised version of the Minnesota Impulsive Disorders Interview (MIDI-R), Symptom Check List (SCL-90-R) questionnaire, Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS-11), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI). Results: We detected ICD associated with DAs in two patients with acromegaly (5%) and three patients (7.5%) with prolactinoma. All patients' symptoms resolved after discontinuation of the drug. While the mean DA dose was higher in patients with acromegaly than prolactinomas (p < 0.05), no difference was detected in terms of ICD prevalence between two groups (p < 0.05). SCL-90 depression and interpersonal sensitivity subscale positivity was higher in patients with NFA than HCs. Patients with prolactinoma had higher obsession and interpersonal sensitivity positivity and those with NFA had higher somatization, interpersonal sensitivity, and depression positivity as compared to patients with acromegaly (p < 0.05 for all). Conclusions: Although DA dose was significantly higher in patients with acromegaly, there was no significant difference in the prevalence of DA-related ICD. The higher prevalence of positive screening in SCL-90 in patients with NFA in comparison to HCs supports the hypothesis that the presence of a pituitary adenoma per se might cause significant psychiatric symptoms.
