Overview
There are no established risk factors for autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome. However, patients with single autoimmune disorder are at an increased risk of having another autoimmune disorder. Any autoimmune endocrine disorder such as Addison's disease, type 1 diabetes mellitus, autoimmune thyroiditis, hypogonadism (usually autoimmune oophoritis), vitiligo, pernicious anemia, chronic atrophic gastritis, chronic active hepatitis puts the patient at an increased risk of autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome.
Risk Factors
There are no established risk factors for autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome. However, patients with single autoimmune disorder are at an increased risk of having another autoimmune disorder. The following is the list of autoimmune disorders which may put a patient at an increased risk for autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome.
- Addison's disease
- Type 1 diabetes mellitus
- Autoimmune thyroiditis
- Hypogonadism (usually autoimmune oophoritis)
- Vitiligo
- Pernicious anemia
- Chronic atrophic gastritis
- Chronic active hepatitis
- Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura
- Myasthenia gravis
