Abstract
March 28 marked the 221st anniversary of the birth of Karl Adolph von Basedow - a versatile and attentive family doctor who made a great contribution to the development of endocrinology and medicine in general. He is best known in German-speaking countries and in Eastern Europe for the discovery in 1840 of a diffuse toxic goiter and the discovery of the Merseburg triad (exophthalmos, tachycardia, goiter). K. Bazedov also described most of the other main characteristics of immune hyperthyroidism and endocrine ophthalmopathy, reflecting on the pathophysiological causes of these disorders. We sincerely congratulate K. Bazedov on his solid anniversary and thank him for his great work and contribution to medicine.
