Objectives: Forkhead box P3 () gene polymorphisms have been evaluated in many autoimmune diseases, including Graves' disease (GD), in different populations. However, those polymorphisms have not been analyzed in GD or Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO) in the Turkish population. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the frequency of polymorphisms in GD with or without ophthalmopathy in a Turkish population.

Aim of the survey was to identify trends in presentation of GO to the European Group On Graves' Orbitopathy (EUGOGO) tertiary referral centres and initial management over time.
Methods: Prospective observational multicentre study.
Purpose: To evaluate the changes in demographics, clinical findings, and treatment modalities in Graves' orbitopathy (GO) patients at a tertiary referral center in Turkey over the last two decades.
Methods: The clinical data of 752 GO patients were evaluated retrospectively. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to the first ophthalmic examination date; Group 1(n:344) between January 1998 and December 2007 and Group 2(n:408) between January 2008 and December 2017.
Purpose: To compare the radiologic and clinical features of primary lacrimal gland pleomorphic adenoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma.
Methods: This study retrospectively reviewed imaging findings and medical records of lacrimal gland pleomorphic adenoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma.
Results: Eleven patients with pleomorphic adenoma and 16 patients with adenoid cystic carcinoma were evaluated.
