NCT05627401

Brief Summary

Graves' orbitopathy (GO) is an disfiguring and disabling autoimmune condition. Sight-threatening GO is an most severe form and occurs in about 5% of patients with Graves' disease. It can cause blurred vision, color vision and vision function damage, and affects the quality of life. The goal of this retrospective cohort study is to propose a customized orbital decompression algorithm for patients with sight-threatening Graves'ophthalmopathy and to explore the therapeutic effect of customized orbital decompression in sight-threatening patients.

Single Group Assignment

patients with sight-threatening Graves orbitopathy (GO) who underwent customized/individual multiple orbital wall decompression plus fat removal

Procedure: Modified multiple orbital wall decompression

Interventions

Thyroid dysfunction of all patients is stabilized by ATDs until treatment of TAO is completed. All patients with sight-threatening GO were admitted for emergency steroid pulse therapy. And additional drugs for protecting gastrointestinal mucous membrane, potassium and calcium supplements, and sedatives were used. All emergency cases, whose signs of visual impairment clinically attributable to GO existed despite first-line steroid treatment, were referred and discussed at the surgical board of our interdisciplinary center for prompt surgical orbital decompression. Urgent orbital decompression was performed when response is absent or poor within 1-2 weeks.

Study Population

This was a retrospective cohort study of patients with sight-threatening Graves orbitopathy (GO) who underwent customized/individual multiple orbital wall decompression plus fat removal at Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital from Jan. 2017 to Dec. 2021.

You may qualify if:

  • Sight-threatening patients undergoing interdisciplinary discussion and orbital decompression operation.
  • The sight-threatening GO refer to those with DON, exposure keratitis or corneal breakdown.
  • DON was diagnosed according to the following clinical findings including optic nerve head edema, visual field defect, impaired color vision, afferent pupil defect, retinal folds, radiologic evidence of apical optic nerve compression or globe subluxation.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients were excluded if exophthalmos, rather than acute visual loss, was the indication for surgery.
  • Cases with a history of previous ocular surgery, glaucoma, and visual defects from other ocular conditions were excluded from the study.
