[Signs and symptoms of endocrine orbitopathy (author's transl)].
The typical motility disturbances of endocrine orbitopathy and the methods of examination are described. Particular reference was placed on the active force generation test and the passive forced duction test. The differential diagnosis between endocrine orbitopathy and tumor was described. Occasionally the endocrine infiltrations may lead to retinal folds or to a tumour-like echographic picture.
