Exophthalmos associated with chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia [PDF]
Chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia (CPEO) is a mitochondrial disease characterized by slowly progressive ptosis and limitations in ocular motility. Although exophthalmos is not considered to be a common feature of CPEO, this study focused on the incidence of exophthalmos in patients with CPEO.Retrospective observational case series METHODS ...
