Abstract:
Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO) is an autoimmune disorder representing the commonest and most important extrathyroidal manifestation of Graves' disease.GO can be a debilitating component of the disease,resulting in impaired quality of life.Although therapeutic methods appear to be widespread,the optimal treatment remains challenging.This article reviewes recent studies on therapy pattern and evidence-based medicine,to provide practical information for managing patients with GO.
