Treatment with tocilizumab for corticosteroid-resistant forms of autoimmune orbitopathy in Graves' disease
Abstract
The article describes the experience of tocilizumab using in three patients with severe autoimmune orbitopathy who did not respond to treatment with pulse corticosteroid therapy. The only alternative for these patients was surgery. Our goal was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of treatment with tocilizumab for this pathology.
