Résumé / Abstract

Since a relationship between cigarette smoking and the occurrence of Graves' ophthalmopathy has been recently postulated, we reviewed the smoking habits of 1730 women, including subjects without thyroid disease, with nontoxic goiter (NTG), toxic nodular goiter or toxic adenoma (TNG), Hashimotós thyroiditis (HT), Graves' disease without ophthalmopathy (GD) or with ophthalmopathy (GO). The prevalence of smokers in NTG, TNG and HT was about 30%, not different from that of controls. Smokers were 47.9% in GD and 64.2% in GO groups
