e analysed the hepatic Function of 141 patients with Graves’ disease. Results: In the 141 cases

there are 99 patients accompanied with hepatic dysfunction

and the incidence is 70.2% ; Its incidence is significantly related with degree of seriousness and existence of complication (P<0.05)

but has no statistical relation with patient’s age

sex and illness duration (P>0.05); 95.8% patients with hepatic dysfunction became normal within two months after antithyroid treatment. The results suggest that the patients with Graves’ disease are easily accompanied with hepatic dysfunction

particularly for those in serious condition and with complications

but this hepatic dysfunction has a favorable prognosis.
