Abstract Graves' orbitopathy might be severe, requiring treatment with high‐dose glucocorticoids. A lytic bone lesion, malignant lesions, and diseases resulting from bone remodeling processes (eg, Paget's disease) must be excluded by markers and imagery. Outcomes of high‐dose glucocorticoids and thyrotoxicosis must be screened and prevented.
