Role of the mononuclear cell infiltrate in Graves’ orbitopathy (GO): results of a large cohort study

The extent to which mononuclear cells and TSH-receptor autoantibodies (TRAb) contribute to Graves’ orbitopathy (GO) is not completely defined. Here we investigated the relationship between the immunohistochemical phenotype of orbital infiltrating cells and GO features in a large number of patients. We conducted an observational cohort study in 76 consecutive patients with GO (16 men and 60 women) who underwent orbital decompression over a period...
