exophthalmic goitre

Graves' disease has also been called exophthalmic goitre.

He was among the first physicians to give a detailed description of exophthalmic goitre, currently known as Graves disease (previously called Basedow's syndrome or Begbie's disease).

A member of the French Académie Nationale de Médecine, Guéneau de Mussy made contributions in his research of pertussis, hemiglossitis, exophthalmic goitre and glandular angina.

Oliver was not slow to try adrenal extracts in patients, orally again and rather indiscriminately, from Addison's disease, hypotension ("loss of vasomotor tone"), Diabetes mellitus and Diabetes insipidus to Graves' disease ("exophthalmic goitre").
