This relatively large series suggests that in 2021, PoVEO GD may be a new nosological entity representing one third of patients evaluated for new-onset GD in our center. Distinctive features included older age at onset, higher male prevalence and a better initial biochemical and immunological response to treatment. Further studies are warranted to clinically and biochemically differentiate these cases from sporadically occurred GD.
