Wrapped up in Rarity: A Case of Multiple Autoimmune Syndrome

Abstract

Multiple autoimmune syndromes are a condition, in which patients have at least three distinct autoimmune conditions. The association of vitiligo and alopecia areata with hypothyroidism and type 1 diabetes mellitus is well known, though the coexistence of four autoimmune disorders in a single patient is an extremely rare occurrence. The coexistence of multiple autoimmune disorders highlights the need for continued surveillance for the development of autoimmune disorders in predisposed patients. Here, we report a case of a 32-year-old male harbouring four autoimmune disorders simultaneously.
