Journal Title: Міжнародний ендокринологічний журнал - Year 2016, Vol 7, Issue 79
Abstract
The clinical case reflects polyendocrinopathy of the autoimmune origin that occurs with primary multiple lesions of endocrine glands and other organs. Multiple endocrinopathies mutually aggravate each other and also deteriorate the course of the disease. The basis of pathogenetic treatment is a continuous hormone replacement therapy in functional failure of affected endocrine glands. The early detection of autoimmune polyglandular syndrome and timely treatment help to control the disease.
