Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
The polyglandular autoimmune syndromes are a rare, inherited constellation of disorders characterized by multiple endocrine end-organ failures. Since these individuals have more than one endocrine failure, it is important to recognize these syndromes in clinical practice and be alert to the possibility of a second major endocrine organ failure after one has been diagnosed. |
