RESUMO

The case concerns a 73 year-old female with a diagnosis of hyperthyroidism of 8 months onset. Since then, she has suffered hyperaemia and ocular proptosis. Bilateral exophthalmos was observed in the physical examination, along with mild conjunctival hyperaemia in the right eye associated with dilated episcleral vessels. Computed tomography showed enlarged inferior rectus with no signs of ocular nerve or ophthalmic superior vein compression. In the orbital Doppler ultrasound scan, there was an arterialised flow over the superior ophthalmic vein, giving a possible diagnosis of cavernous carotid. Thyroid orbitopathy with a cavernous carotid fistula is an unusual combination in which the clinical signs of both pathologies can mask the complete diagnosis; thus it is important to be acquainted with both pathologies for their correct management and multidisciplinary treatment.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Smoking is an important risk factor for Graves orbitopathy (GO) and it is modifiable. The advice to stop smoking has been included in all the clinical practice guidelines of GO. However, the effectiveness of this practice remains unknown. The purpose of this study is to assess the change in the smoking habit in patients affected with GO after an oral counselling for smoking cessation. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A retrospective cohort of GO patients was studied. The patients received a significant oral counsel during the first consultation with the ophthalmologist. 33 GO patients were explored in the ophthalmology clinic during 2013 and 2014 and the study was done throughout a telephone questionnaire in 2015. The main outcome was the number of cigarettes smoked daily before and after consultation with the endocrinologist and the ophthalmologist. Other medical and socioeconomic factors were recorded. RESULTS: The mean number of cigarettes that were smoked was 13.6 (SD 9.66) and 6.3 (SD 7.73) before and after the consultation done at the ophthalmology office (T-test paired, P=0.0006). 42.42% achieved smoking cessation and 30.3% decreased their smoking habit. Patients who stopped smoking suffered usually from active and severe GO, had more stable jobs and received greater support from their relatives and friends. CONCLUSION: A firm and strong oral counsel held for smoke cessation was effective in GO patients. This disease deeply affects patients' quality of life, making them more prone to change their habits.

RESUMO

RESUMEN La orbitopatía tiroidea es una enfermedad autoinmune, en la que una reacción inflamatoria genera aumento de la presión orbitaria con protrusión de su contenido. A menudo es autolimitada y sus síntomas más frecuentes son retracción palpebral, exoftalmo y diplopía. Existen casos severos con compromiso de la agudeza visual por compresión del nervio óptico. El diagnóstico es clínico, pero debe complementarse con una tomografía computarizada. Su tratamiento depende de la gravedad y actividad de la enfermedad, siendo los procedimientos quirúrgicos, como la descompresión orbitaria, de elección en exoftalmo y neuropatía óptica compresiva. El pilar de tratamiento en la orbitopatía tiroidea severa es la cirugía descompresiva. Se han descrito múltiples técnicas, pero con limitaciones. La descompresión endoscópica transnasal, es considerada actualmente el procedimiento de elección, ya que permite una buena visualización de la pared medial, con resultados comparables y menores complicaciones, respecto a métodos tradicionales. Describimos un caso de oftalmopatía tiroidea severa, con exoftalmo, diplopía y disminución de la agudeza visual, en la que se realizó una descompresión endoscópica con muy buenos resultados.


ABSTRACT Thyroid orbitopathy is an autoimmune disease in which an inflammatory reaction generates increased orbital pressure with protrusion of its contents. It is often self-limiting and its most frequent symptoms are eyelid retraction, exophthalmos and diplopia. There are severe cases with compromised visual acuity due to compression of the optic nerve. The diagnosis is clinical, but must be complemented with a computed tomography scan. Its treatment depends on the severity and activity of the disease and the surgicals procedures such as orbital decompression is the best choice in exophthalmos and compressive optic neuropathy. The treatment in severe thyroid orbitopathy is decompressive surgery. Multiple techniques have been described, but with limitations. The transnasal endoscopic decompression is currently considered the gold standard, since it allows a good visualization of the medial wall with comparable results and less complications, compared to traditional methods. We present a case of severe thyroid ophthalmopathy, with exophthalmos, diplopia and decreased visual acuity, in which a transnasal endoscopic decompression was performed with very good outcomes.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To assess the extraocular muscle thickness and chemosis after treatment with tocilizumab in patients with active Graves' ophthalmopathy by optical coherence tomography. METHODS: Case series of five patients with active Graves' ophthalmopathy (clinical activity score ≥4/10) treated with 4 doses of tocilizumab. These patients had been previously treated with corticosteroids with no response. Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography was employed to determine lateral and medial rectus muscle thickness and chemosis before and after 4 doses of tocilizumab given monthly. Scanning was performed at 3 and 9 o'clock (nasal and temporal). RESULTS: The study included four women and one man with a median age of 52 years (range: 38-73). Median Graves' ophthalmopathy activity duration was 17 months (12-18). Median medial rectus and determine lateral thicknesses pre-treatment were 249µm (174-366) and 337µm (142-443), respectively. Median chemosis was 409µm (290-610). After tocilizumab treatment, median muscle thicknesses reduced to 157µm (88-187) and 197µm (99-290), respectively (P=.043; Wilcoxon) and chemosis to 59µm (0-78). Median clinical activity score decreased from 5 (4-8) to 1 (0-3). CONCLUSIONS: A reduction in extraocular muscle thickness and chemosis was observed after treatment with tocilizumab in Graves' ophthalmopathy patients using an optical coherence tomography, so this technique could be a useful complementary technique to assess the therapeutic responses.

RESUMO

La enfermedad de Graves es rara en los niños y adolescentes, y aunque cursa con una clínica bastante florida, no siempre se piensa en este diagnóstico, y en no pocas ocasiones llegan a la consulta de Endocrinología remitidos de servicios de Psicología y/o Psiquiatría por un predominio de alteraciones conductuales (hiperquinesia, irritabilidad). La afección ocular puede aparecer en relación o no con los estados de hipertiroidismo, y se presenta en muchos casos con el paciente eutiroideo, por lo que se nombra actualmente orbitopatía asociada al tiroides. Es una enfermedad autoinmune y autolimitada que afecta el tejido conectivo, y su evolución es menos grave que en el adulto. El tratamiento de esta entidad es muy particularizado en las edades pediátricas, debido a que las modalidades terapéuticas por sí mismas no cumplen todos los criterios de efectividad y seguridad. Teniendo en cuenta el grado y la severidad de la orbitopatía se establecen los protocolos de atención. Es válido señalar que en estas edades -por lo general- se presentan formas leves o moderadas. Existen tres líneas de tratamiento: el medicamentoso, con antitiroideos de síntesis; el iodo radiactivo solo, o combinado con terapia esteroidea; o la extirpación quirúrgica de la glándula tiroides. En niños es muy raro que se llegue a la cirugía orbitaria. Con el objetivo de reagrupar información actualizada sobre este tema se presenta esta revisión(AU)


Graves´ disease is rare in children and adolescents, and although it develops with a fairly abundant clinic, this diagnosis is not always taken into account and in many occasions, the patients are referred to the endocrinology service from the psychology and /or psychiatry service because of predominant behavioral alterations (hyperkinesia, irritability). This eye disease may appear, either associated or not, to the conditions of hyperthyroidism, and it occurs many times in the euthyroid patient, so it is presently called thyroid-associated orbinopathy. It is an autoimmune, autolimited disease affecting the connective tissue and its progression is less severe than in the adult. The treatment is very particularized at pediatric ages because the therapeutic modalities as such do not meet all the required effectiveness and safety criteria. Taking into account the degree and the severity of orbinopathy, the respective care protocols are set. Generally speaking, it is worthwhile to point out that at these ages; there are moderate or slight forms of disease. There are also three lines of treatment: medication with synthesis anti-thyroid; the radioiodine therapy alone or in combination with steroidal therapy; and the surgical excision of the thyroid gland. It is very uncommon that a child undergoes orbital surgery. The objective of this review was to reorganize updated information about this topic(AU)

RESUMO

Objetivo: evaluar los resultados terapéuticos obtenidos con la inyección de toxina botulínica en el músculo recto superior en pacientes con retracción palpebral moderada y grave en el curso de la orbitopatía tiroidea; determinar la influencia de algunos factores relacionados con estos e identificar las complicaciones y las reacciones adversas asociadas a su uso terapéutico. Métodos: se realizó un estudio descriptivo prospectivo en el Servicio de Oftalmología del Hospital Hermanos Ameijeiras en una serie de 21 casos con retracción palpebral moderada y grave en el curso de la orbitopatía tiroidea. La inyección de toxina botulínica en el músculo recto superior para la corrección de la retracción de la orbitopatía tiroidea se realiza por primera vez en el país. Resultados: fueron satisfactorios en el 66,7 por ciento de los casos. La edad y la gravedad clínica de la retracción fueron los factores que influyeron sobre la respuesta terapéutica (p= 0,013 y p= 0,015 respectivamente). Conclusiones: la inyección de toxina botulínica en el músculo recto superior es efectiva en la mayoría de los casos tratados, sobre todo en adultos jóvenes y con menor gravedad clínica de la retracción. La hipercorrección es la complicación más temida de este procedimiento(AU)


Objective: to evaluate the therapeutic results of the botulinum toxin injection in the upper rectus muscle in patients with moderate and severe eyelid retraction in the course of thyroid orbitopathy, and to determine the influence of some factors related to these patients and to identify the complications and adverse reactions associated to its therapeutic use. Methods: prospective and descriptive study was carried out at the ophthalmological service of Hermanos Ameijeiras hospital in a 21 case series study with moderate and severe eyelid retraction in the course of thyroid orbitopathy. The injection of botulinum toxin into the upper rectus muscle for the correction of retraction in thyroid orbitopathy was performed for the first time in the country. Results: in this group, 66.7 percent of patients had satisfactory results. Age and clinical severity of retraction were the factors having influence on the therapeutic response (p= 0.013 and p= 0.015 respectively). Conclusions: the botulinum toxin injection into the upper rectus muscle is effective in most of treated cases, mainly in young adults with less clinical retraction severity. Hypercorrection is the most fearful complication in this procedure(AU)

RESUMO

Objetivo: evaluar los resultados del tratamiento de la orbitopatía tiroidea y determinar cuáles son los factores que influyen sobre ellos. Métodos: se realizó un estudio observacional en una cohorte de 82 pacientes con orbitopatía tiroidea, durante el período 1997-2009.Resultados: en los casos con orbitopatía tiroidea activa, la corticoterapia se inició a los 19 meses de evolución y no fue satisfactoria en la mayoría de ellos, por lo que para preservar la visión se realizaron varias intervenciones quirúrgicas. Los factores que influyeron sobre la respuesta terapéutica fueron el tabaquismo y la actividad de la orbitopatía tiroidea (OR= 30,479 y OR= 14,557, respectivamente). Se obtuvieron buenos resultados con el uso de la toxina botulínica A y con la cirugía en la corrección del estrabismo y la retracción.Conclusiones: el diagnóstico y el tratamiento precoz es la conducta terapéutica ideal para los pacientes con orbitopatía tiroidea. El tabaquismo y la actividad de la orbitopatía tiroideainterfirieren en la respuesta terapéutica. La toxina botulínica A y la cirugía son efectivas en la corrección del estrabismo y la retracción palpebral de la orbitopatía tiroidea(AU)


Objective: to evaluate the results of the treatment of thyroid orbinopathy and to determine the factors affecting them.Methods: observational study of a cohort of 82 patients with thyroid orbinopathy during the 1997-2009 period. Results: corticosteroid-bases therapy began nineteen months after the onset of disease and was unsatisfactory in most of cases with active thyroid orbitopathy, so it was necessary to perform several surgeries to preserve the vision. The influential factors on the therapeutic response were smoking and thyroid orbinopathy activity (OR= 30,479 and OR= 14,557, respectively). Good results were attained with botilinum toxin A and strabismus correction surgery and retraction. Conclusions: early diagnosis and treatment is the best therapy for patients with thyroid orbinopathy. Smoking and thyroid orbinopathy negatively affect the therapeutic response. Botulinum toxin A and surgery are effective options in the strabismus correction and palpebral retractions of thyroid orbinopathy(AU)

RESUMO

Thyroid orbitopathy is the most prevalent non-thyroid symptom in Graves' syndrome. It has a high incidence and particularly affects young women. Smoking is clearly involved in its development and progress, and in its response to different treatments. This autoimmune condition usually has a benign course, independent from hyperthyroidism, but its severe, progressive forms represent a major therapeutic challenge. Clinical evaluation poses great difficulties, as there is no truly objective rating scale representing disease activity. New molecular or inflammation markers may prove to be useful in this regard. This review reports new findings about its pathophysiology and the different techniques used for treatment over time. Discussion particularly focuses on the immunomodulatory role of radiotherapy, as well as on its role together with corticosteroids.

RESUMO

OBJETIVOS: Evaluar los resultados del tratamiento con toxina botulÝnica en su correcci¾n y compararlos con los obtenidos por la cirugÝa convencional, en casos con similar grado de severidad del estrabismo. MÉTODOS: Se realiz¾ un estudio descriptivo, prospectivo y comparativo, en el periodo de mayo de 2006 a febrero de 2009, en un grupo de 10 casos, tratados con toxina botulÝnica, por inyecci¾n directa del músculo afectado. Los resultados de este tratamiento se compararon con los obtenidos por la cirugÝa en un grupo de 10 casos. RESULTADOS: La edad, el predominio del sexo, el tiempo de evoluci¾n y la severidad clÝnica del estrabismo, son similares en ambos grupos, por lo que son comparables. Los resultados fueron satisfactorios en el 70 por ciento de los casos tratados con toxina y cirugÝa. Los valores promedios de las dioptrÝas prismßticas de ambos ojos, disminuyeron el dÝa 7, 45 y 90. No hubo diferencias significativas, entre los valores promedios de las dioptrÝas prismßticas corregidas por ambos tratamientos, en casos con similar grado de severidad del estrabismo. CONCLUSIËN: El tratamiento con toxina botulÝnica es menos invasivo que la cirugÝa


OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the results of the treatment with botulinum toxin in the correction of restrictive strabismus and compare them with those of the surgery, in cases affected by similar strabismus severity. METHOD: A prospective, descriptive and comparative study was made in 10 patients with strabismus from May, 2006 to February, 2009, which were treated with botulinum toxin directly injected into the affected muscle. These results were then compared to those of the surgery performed in 10 cases. RESULTS: Age, the predominant sex, the time of evolution and the clinical severity of strabismus were comparable in both groups. The botulinum toxin results were satisfactory in 70 percent of cases treated with toxin and surgery. The average values of the prismatic dioptries of both eyes lowered at 7th, 45th and 90th days. The differences among the average values of the corrected prismatic dioptries in both types of treatment were not significant. CONCLUSION: The treatment with the botulinum toxin is less invasive than the surgery
