Evaluation of Exophthalmos and Thyroid Ophthalmopathy
1986Exophthalmos is a condition that is often seen by ophthalmologists. A thorough physical examination is not sufficient to establish a specific diagnosis and its etiology. Diagnostic imaging, especially computed tomography (CT), is especially helpful in the study of orbital disease; its use helps to avoid unnecessary surgical explorations.

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

THYROID FUNCTION IN PATIENTS WITH EXOPHTHALMOS PRECEDING THYROTOXICOSIS
Australasian Annals of Medicine, 1966SUMMARYEight patients are described who showed the classical ocular manifestations of Graves' disease but none of the other clinical manifestations of hyperthyroidism. In all cases there was an elevated level of PB131I in the plasma after the administration of a tracer dose of131I, and, in three cases studied, the uptake of131I by the thyroid was not ...

Persistent or progressive post-thyroidectomy exophthalmos has been recognized as a possible undesirable and a potentially serious sequel of the operation almost from the time ...
