[Transnasal endoscopic orbital decompression in the algorithm of surgical treatment of endocrine ophthalmopathy].

Transnasal endoscopic decompression of the orbit in the inactive form of the disease is indicated for exophthalmos of more than 4-8 mm. In optical neuropathy, transnasal endoscopic orbital decompression is indicated regardless of the initial visual acuity of the patient and should be supplemented with lateral bone orbital decompression with visual acuity below 0.1. The obtained results allowed us to form an algorithm for surgical treatment of patients with endocrine ophthalmopathy and optical neuropathy using transnasal endoscopic orbital decompression as a surgical intervention.
