Abstract :
Autoimmune polyendocrine syndromes are a heterogeneous
group of rare diseases characterized by autoimmune activity
against more than one endocrine organ, although non-endocrine
organs can also be affected. We report the association of APS I
with erythema annulare centrifugum in an 18-years-old male who
presented with multiple figurate erythema spreading on his trunk
and extremities along with a history of multiple endocrine disorders
such as diabetes mellitus, hypothyroidism, hypoparathyroidism,
hypogonadism, and adrenal insufficiency from one year ago. To
our knowledge this is a very rare association.
