Although usually milder than adult TED, it can still cause functional and psychological morbidity. Pediatric management remains unclear due to the absence of specific guidelines and concerns about treatment-related risks such as growth suppression.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis following PRISMA guidelines, searching MEDLINE, Embase, and Emcare from inception to March 2024. Studies included interventional and observational reports involving patients \u226418 years with TED. Data were synthesized narratively and quantitatively.

The most common symptoms were exophthalmos (99.5%), eyelid retraction (73.1%), and dry eye (66.3%). Treatments ranged from antithyroid drugs and corticosteroids, to orbital decompression and biologics. Meta-analysis showed mean exophthalmos reductions of 4.69 mm for decompression, 4.25 mm for steroids, and 1.75 mm for biologics. Substantial heterogeneity and low certainty of evidence limited interpretability. Interventions were performed earlier than recommended, with no significant adverse effects reported.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Despite most pediatric TED cases being mild, a subset of patients requires more intensive management.
