Trial 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. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 65 years
  • All sexes
  • Adult, Older adult

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.

Who may be able to join

  • 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.
  • Diagnosis of exposure keratitis or corneal breakdown was made based on physical exam signs, e.g. microepithelial defects, abrasion or ulcer. A minimum follow-up of 12 months was required for inclusion.

Who cannot join

  • 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.

About this study

Official title: Customized Modified Multiple Orbital Wall Decompression With Fat Removal for Sight-threatening Graves's Ophthalmopathy : a Retrospective Cohort Study

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.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Modified multiple orbital wall decompressionProcedure or surgery

    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.
