This Endocrine Society endorsed paper is an update of the 2009 version, also published in JCEM, with clinical guidelines for endocrine management of patients with GD. The major focus is on adult patients but a large part is also focusing on children and adolescents with GD, contributed by co-authors with pediatric endocrinology and psychology expertise. Detailed advise on endocrine work-up, treatment, follow-up and other issues is presented. Since the authors represent origins from a number of professional organizations including ESPE and several continents, the guidelines given by this paper are supported by a broad experience and expertise. This article is a must for pediatric endocrinologists dealing with GD. Another paper (Tangpricha V et al.), based on the present guidelines, discusses several GD cases and their management, and these serve as excellent training scenarios.
