This study of 107 pediatric patients with Graves Disease treated with radioiodine found that nearly all patients became hypothyroid (an intended side-effect of the treatment) and that no patients developed thyroid cancer or leukemia. Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2004;89:4229–4233 (as reported in the Journal of Nuclear Medicine http://jnm.snmjournals.org/cgi/reprint/45/11/32N)
