Abstract

Graves' disease is a thyroid disease usually seen inwomen between the ages of 20 and 50 and euthyroidGraves’ ophthalmopathy is seen in 3% of thesepatients. The most common extrathyroidal sign ofGraves' disease is thyroid-associated orbitopathy(TAO). Secondary orbital involvement in thyroiddiseases is usually bilateral. 10-15% of the cases maybe asymmetric and they may later become bilateral.Asymmetric unilateral orbitopathy is not uncommon,but asymmetric exophthalmos patients may bemisdiagnosed.

Özet

Graves hastalığı, genellikle 20-50 yaş arası kadınlarda görülen bir tiroid hastalığıdır. Ötiroid Graves oftalmopatisi bu hastaların % 3'ünde görülür. Graves hastalığının en yaygın ekstratroidal belirtisi tiroid ilişkili orbitopatidir. Tiroid hastalıklarında sekonder orbital tutulum genellikle bilateraldir. % 10-15 olguda asimetrik olabilir ve daha sonra bilaterale dönebilir. Asimetrik tek taraflı orbitopati nadir değildir, ancak asimetrik ekzoftalmi hastaları yanlış teşhis edilebilir.
