Abstract excerpt

Graves' Disease (GD) is an autoimmune condition in which thyroid-stimulating antibodies (TRAB) mimic thyroid-stimulating hormone function causing hyperthyroidism. 5% of GD patients develop inflammatory Graves' orbitopathy (GO) characterized by proptosis and attendant sight problems.
