Natural history of thyroid associated ophthalmopathy

Clinical Endocrinology, 1995
SummaryBACKGROUND The natural history of thyroid associated ophthalmopathy is poorly documented, although It is widely thought that many cases Improve spontaneously with time. This has Important Implications in the management of patients and is also a critical factor when assessing the effects of different treatments.OBJECTIVE To document the natural

Choroidal vascularity index in thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy

Canadian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2023
To investigate the choroidal vascularity index (CVI) in patients with thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) and its relationship with clinical features and clinical activity score METHODS: Right eyes of 53 patients with TAO and 53 healthy subjects were scanned for subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT), CVI, choroid-stromal area (C-SA), choroid-luminal

Medical Treatment for Thyroid-Associated Ophthalmopathy

Thyroid, 2002
The medical management of thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy has been, and remains a clinical challenge. Several drugs have been used. Systemic steroids seem to be beneficial in patients with active disease. The evidence for the remaining drugs reported to be potentially useful, is unconvincing.

Octreoscan in Thyroid-Associated Ophthalmopathy

Thyroid, 2002
Until recently, there was no imaging technique available that could be considered as a reliable measure of inflammation in thyroid-associated opthalmopathy (TAO). Pentetreotide (a synthetic derivative of somatostatin) labeled with 111In has been used to visualize somatostatin receptors in endocrine-related tumours in vivo.

The pathophysiology of thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy

Ophthalmology Clinics of North America, 2002
TAO is an inflammatory disease of the orbital tissues. The effects of inflammation, mediated through cytokine release, include proliferation of fibroblasts, increased deposition of extracellular matrix, and adipocyte differentiation and proliferation. As a result, edema, enlargement of the extraocular muscles, and increased volume of the orbital soft ...

Sinusitis in Thyroid Associated Ophthalmopathy

American Journal of Rhinology, 1993
In 19 patients with thyroid associated ophthalmopathy undergoing orbital decompression, histologic examination of paranasal sinus mucosa revealed moderate to severe inflammatory alterations in all patients. Only 2/19 patients had a history of chronic sinusitis. In 4/19 patients, mucosal abnormalities of the paranasal sinuses were found on preoperative

Radioiodine and thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy

Orbit, 1996
Particular attention has recently been paid to the relationship between radioiodine administration and the course of thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO). Conflicting results have been reported in the literature, and radioiodine therapy has been associated either with aggravation, improvement, or no relevant changes of eye disease.

Animal Models of Thyroid-Associated Ophthalmopathy

Thyroid, 2002
Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) is an autoimmune condition most frequently associated with Graves' disease (GD). The thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) is an important target of the autoimmune response in both disorders. The last 5 years have seen some progress in the development of animal models, induced with TSHR preparations and reproducing some or

Progress in Thyroid-Associated Ophthalmopathy

Thyroid, 2002
185 AN INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM on progress in thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) was held as a satellite to the 12th International Thyroid Congress, in Kyoto. The program addressed basic research and clinical management aspects of TAO. The symposium comprised 19 invited lectures and a poster session.

Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy: pathogenesis and clinical management

Baillière's Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1995
The pathogenesis of thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy is autoimmune. The questions to which answers are eagerly awaited are the identification of the autoantigen(s) and the definition of the autoimmune processes (cellular or humoral) responsible. Cellular and humoral immune responses and modulation by cytokines, against orbital tissues have been ...
