title: [Hypothyroidism associated with retrobulbar optic neuritis. A clinical case].
abstract: The authors have described a hypothyroidism clinic event with both non-specific symptoms and retrobulbar neuritis. They conclude that the above-mentioned pathology is somewhat insidious since, affecting the whole body, it can arise with non-specific symptoms thus averting towards a wrong diagnosis.
