Acromegaly is a hormonal disorder. This disorder develops in the pituitary gland of human beings. It occurs when too much growth hormone is produced during the phase of adulthood.

The increase in release of growth hormone causes the bones to increase in length and width. Thus the hands, face and feet will look enlarged.

Appositional growth is associated with the increase in the diameter of the bone. This is the characteristic feature of the acromegaly. Appositional growth results due to the stimulation of the osteoblasts.

The given situation is an example of acromegaly, as this involves the excessive appositional growth.
