Computed tomography in orbital pseudothumor (idiopathic orbital inflammation). 1976

D Enzmann, and S S Donaldson, and W H Marshall, and J P Kriss

CT scans of 9 patients with orbital pseudotumor (bilateral in 6 and unilateral in 3) showed findings distinct from those observed in Graves' ophthalmopathy. In bilateral involvement, they ranged from localized mass lesions to complete obiliteration of normal orbital CT anatomical landmarks; diffuse or multifocal lesions involving the posterior globe and muscle insertions were most typical of the diagnosis. However, findings in unilateral psedotumor may be indistinguishable from orbital mass lesions other than Graves' ophthalmopathy. Serial CT scans were used to show progression of disease and response to treatment.

D006111 Graves Disease A common form of hyperthyroidism with a diffuse hyperplastic GOITER. It is an autoimmune disorder that produces antibodies against the THYROID STIMULATING HORMONE RECEPTOR. These autoantibodies activate the TSH receptor, thereby stimulating the THYROID GLAND and hypersecretion of THYROID HORMONES. These autoantibodies can also affect the eyes (GRAVES OPHTHALMOPATHY) and the skin (Graves dermopathy).
