The treatment of Graves' ophthalmopathy is challenging. A graded approach is justified. Patients have to be informed that several procedures may be necessary and, in cases of nonsyndromic exorbitism or myopia, that facial modifications might occur.

A partial diminution or stabilization of plexiform neurofibromas may be obtained using radiofrequency. This treatment is well tolerated. The best effect can be observed in the early stages of the disease. The optimal dose and frequency of the procedure require further study.
