Answer:

pituitary

Explanation:

Gigantism is usually caused by a non-cancerous tumour in the pituitary gland (called a benign adenoma) that produces too much growth hormone. Pituitary tumours can be small in size (micro-adenoma) or large (macro-adenoma). However, in gigantism, they are frequently large and invade nearby brain tissue.
