Euthyroid Graves' disease (EGD) is a rare condition marked by the onset of thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) in the absence of thyroid dysfunction. The pathogenesis of EGD remains unclear, and a consistent view of the pathological findings of the thyroid tissue has yet to be determined. We herein report a case of EGD in a 34-year-old woman with papillary carcinoma treated with total thyroidectomy. The entire thyroid specimen was investigated, and the thyroid tissue appeared normal. In this report, we discuss the relationship between the pathogenesis of TAO and thyroid dysfunction.
甲状腺功能正常的格雷夫斯病（EGD）是一种罕见疾病，其特征为在无甲状腺功能障碍的情况下出现甲状腺相关性眼病（TAO）。EGD的发病机制尚不清楚，甲状腺组织病理结果的一致观点尚未确定。我们在此报告一例34岁接受全甲状腺切除术治疗的乳头状癌女性患者的EGD病例。对整个甲状腺标本进行了检查，甲状腺组织看起来正常。在本报告中，我们讨论了TAO发病机制与甲状腺功能障碍之间的关系。
