Thyroid eye disease (TED) is a poorly understood autoimmune condition affecting the retroorbital tissue. Tissue inflammation, expansion, and fibrosis can potentially lead to debilitating sequelae such as vision loss, painful eye movement, proptosis, and eyelid retraction. Current treatment modalities for TED include systemic glucocorticoids, thioamides, methimazole, teprotumumab, beta-blockers, and radioactive iodine; however, it has been reported that up to 10%-20% of TED patients relapse after treatment withdrawal and 20%-30% are unresponsive to mainstay therapy for reasons that have yet to be more clearly elucidated.

Although metallosis and pseudotumor formation are well recognized complications of metal-on-metal hip replacements, head-stem dissociations are rare with few being reported in literature. To the best of our knowledge, this case report is the first to report this occurrence in an Exeter stem.
