The author delves into the history of the disease, tracing its recognition and understanding over time. The book examines the various theories proposed to explain the condition's etiology, including the glandular theory and neurogenic theory. It also discusses the role of other endocrinous glands, such as the thymus, suprarenals, hypophysis, and ovary, in the development of the disease. Furthermore, the book explores the clinical presentation of exophthalmic goiter, including symptoms such as exophthalmos, enlargement of the thyroid gland, and cardiovascular manifestations. It discusses the differential diagnosis of exophthalmic goiter from other conditions, such as toxic multinodular goiter and thyroiditis.
