Popis:	Buford (1), who has recently reviewed the incidence of Graves’ disease in young children, states: “I have reviewed both American and foreign literature carefully for the last twenty years and find eighteen cases reported in children under twelve years of age. I find only two cases in which operation has been performed. My patient (third to be operated) was six years old, the youngest one that has been reported as operated.” Nine cases, including the one reported by Buford, have been reported in children under five years of age. Another case is herewith presented. Case No. C. 966; 5-26-1922; C.C., female, age 4 years and 7 months. Family History: The father is somewhat nervous, has high blood pressure and a rapid pulse; his eyes are moderately prominent, but apparently normal. The mother’s eyes are also prominent. The paternal grandmother died of heart trouble; the maternal grandmother died at child birth
