Objectives: Graves' disease is the leading cause of hyperthyroidism in children.

Our objective was to evaluate the outcome of patients with pediatric Graves' disease (PGD), treated at a single tertiary center, focusing on response to medical treatment, remission rate, adverse reactions (AR), definitive treatment (DT), and potential predictive factors for remission.
