    Abstract:
    The Authors report their experience in the treatment of Graves disease. After a short review of the literature, the Authors stress the medical trait of such disease with possible spontaneous resolution. Therefore the number of cases surgically treated is necessarily low. Thirty patients, all with specific antibodies, were treated with total thyroidectomy. The therapy chosen and the results obtained are herein shown. No definitive hypoparathyroidism and inferior laryngeal nerve injuries were registered.
