Exophthalmos in Autoimmune Thyroid Disease*
The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1980Protrusion of the eyes of patients with autoimmune thyroid disease was compared with that of healthy subjects. The mean values for protrusion in patients with thyrotoxic Graves' disease and Hashimoto's disease and in healthy subjects were 16.6 +/- 2.1 mm (mean +/- SD; n = 122), 14.2 +/- 1.8 mm (n = 100), and 13.9 +/- 1.9 mm (n = 558), respectively. The

Correlation between Unilateral Exophthalmos and Thyroid Diseases
Ophthalmologica, 201043 clinically euthyroid patients with unilateral exophthalmos were examined using clinical methods, echography, and computerized tomography. The functioning of the hypothalamic-hypophyseal-thyroid axis was investigated by measurements of TSH (before and after stimulation with TRH), thyroid hormones and antithyroglobulin antibodies.

Relationship of Exophthalmos to Disorders of the Thyroid
Archives of Surgery, 1958Analysis of Data on Proptosis (74 Patients) The average period of serial observations is 11 years, the shortest 2, and the longest 20. Changes of 1 mm. are disregarded in using the Luedde or other "ruler" types of exophthalmometers. 1. During the uniform improvement in metabolic status and in appearance of the eyes that occurred during preoperative ...

The management of thyroid exophthalmos
Drug and Therapeutics Bulletin, 1990Exophthalmos can be uncomfortable, unsightly and even painful. If severe, it may lead to corneal ulceration and blindness. In adults it occurs most commonly in women aged 20–45 associated with Graves’ disease. We discuss here the management of the condition.

Long-Acting Thyroid Stimulator and Exophthalmos
Annals of Internal Medicine, 1969Excerpt The role of the long-acting thyroid stimulator (LATS) in the development, or progression, or both, of infiltrative ophthalmopathy continues to be the subject of considerable speculation.

Surgical Management of the Tropias of Thyroid Exophthalmos
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1966Diplopia is an uncommon but distressing result of orbital changes in Graves' disease. Significant extraocular muscle disorders occur usually when there is severe orbital involvement, as described under such terms as exophthalmic ophthalmoplegia (Brain and Turnbull1), thyrotropic exophthalmos (Mulvaney2), and infiltrative ophthalmopathy (Day3).

Treatment of exophthalmos and strabismus surgery in thyroid-associated orbitopathy
International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2016Endocrine orbitopathy (EO) can have important consequences, such as exophthalmos and restrictive strabismus. A retrospective study was performed of 35 patients with EO who underwent orbital decompression surgery and restrictive strabismus correction. Two surgical techniques for orbital decompression were analyzed: fat decompression by Olivari technique

CLINICAL EVALUATION OF THE THYROID STIMULATING HORMONE ACTIVITY IN EXOPHTHALMOS
Acta Endocrinologica, 1961ABSTRACT A method for demonstrating the presence of a thyroid stimulating factor in the blood of patients with progressive exophthalmos after thyroidectomy or after treatment with radioiodine is described. The method consists of transfusing freshly drawn blood from the patients to euthyroid recipients and subsequently following the PBI level of

The Effect of Anterior Orbital Decompression on Motility in Thyroid Exophthalmos
Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 1981SUMMARY Nineteen orbits from 13 patients with endocrine exophthalmos were effectively decompressed into the maxillary and ethmoid antra through an anterior orbitotomy. Six patients with preoperative diplopia had improved ocular ductions and return of binocular single vision in functional positions.
