[Endocrinological findings in endocrine orbitopathy].

Klinische Monatsblatter fur Augenheilkunde, 2005
Carl-Adolph von Basedow described the typical clinical features of immune-mediated hyperthyroidism (tachycardia, proptosis, goiter) in 1840 and termed it the "Merseburg trias".

[Epidemiology of the endocrine orbitopathy].

Ceska a slovenska oftalmologie : casopis Ceske oftalmologicke spolecnosti a Slovenske oftalmologicke spolecnosti, 2007
The goal of this paper was to evaluate epidemiological data of the endocrine orbitopathy in a group of 126 patients (250 eyes) during the 5-years period (1999-2004). The prevalence of endocrine orbitopathy was at the age 46.5 +/- 11.4 years, predominantly in females: 5.3 times more often than in males.

Distension of the meninges of the orbital optic nerve occurs routinely with increased intracranial pressure, whether papilledema be present or, as when optic atrophy supervenes, not demonstrable. This meningeal distension is due to the presence of a perineural cuff of cerebrospinal fluid under pressure.
