INTRODUCTION: Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is one of the most frequent autoimmune diseases in childhood. Its diagnosis requires the search for other autoimmune diseases.
OBJECTIVE: to present the case of a pediatric patient with two rare concomitant autoimmune endocrine diseases.
CLINICAL CASE: A 12-year-old male with no significant morbid history, is hospitalized due to a 3-month clinical pic ture of fatigue, eye pain, intermittent eyelid edema, goiter, polyphagia, polydipsia, polyuria, and weight loss (12 kilograms), compatible with T1DM and Graves-Basedow disease. It was confir med by laboratory tests which showed elevated glycemia (207 mg/dL, HbA1C 10.9%), suppressed TSH (< 0.01 uIU/mL), elevated FT4 (6.99 ng/dL), and the presence of anti-autoantibodies thyroid peroxidase, antithyroglobulin, and anti-TSH receptor, along with suggestive ultrasound findings. Therefore, we established the diagnosis of autoimmune polyglandular syndrome (APS) 3A and initiated treatment with insulin, propranolol, and thiamazole. The patient evolved satisfactorily and was discharged with outpatient follow-up.
CONCLUSION: We present the case of an adolescent who presented APS due to T1DM and hyperthyroidism. This APS may be more common than is reported in clinical practice. The alteration of two or more endocrine glands or other autoimmune diseases should make us suspect its diagnosis, with important clinical implications, such as co morbidity and quality of life prognosis.
