==Overview==
Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome (APS) can be classified into APS type 1, APS type 2 and APS type 3 on the basis of organ involvement. APS type 1 commonly presents with mucocutaneous [[candidiasis]], [[hypoparathyroidism]] and [[Addison's disease]]. APS type 2  most commonly presents with [[Addison's disease]], [[autoimmune thyroiditis]] and [[diabetes mellitus type 1]]. APS type 3 usually presents with [[autoimmune thyroiditis]], [[diabetes mellitus type 1]] and [[pernicious anemia]].

=== Type 1 ===
{{Seealso|Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type 1}}
''Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome, type 1'' is also known as the [[candidiasis]]-[[hypoparathyroidism]]-[[Addison's disease]]-syndrome after its main features:
* A mild [[immune deficiency]], leading to persistent mucosal and cutaneous infections with [[Candida (genus)|candida]] yeasts. There is also decreased function of the [[spleen]] (asplenism).
* Autoimmune dysfunction of the [[parathyroid gland]] (leading to [[hypocalcemia]]) and the [[adrenal gland]] (Addison's disease: [[hypoglycemia]], [[hypotension]] and severe reactions in disease).
* Other disease associations are:
** [[hypothyroidism]]
** [[hypogonadism]] and infertility
** [[diabetes mellitus]] (type 1)
** [[vitiligo]] (depigmentation of the skin)
** [[alopecia]] (baldness)
** [[malabsorption]]
** [[pernicious anemia]]
** [[hepatitis#autoimmune|chronic active (autoimmune) hepatitis]]

Some researchers favour splitting this syndrome into three distinct syndromes (numbering 2, 3 and 4), but research evidence for these distinct combinations is not convincing.
 
=== XPID ===
The most serious but rarest form is the ''X-linked polyendocrinopathy, immunodeficiency and [[diarrhea]]''-syndrome, also called [[IPEX]].  Most patients develop diabetes and diarrhea as neonates and many die due to autoimmune activity against many organs. Boys are affected, while girls are carriers and might suffer mild disease.
 
=== Other diseases ===
Other diseases featuring polyendocrine autoimmunity:
* Chromosomal abnormalities ([[Down's syndrome]]) increase the risk of endocrine autoimmunity
* POEMS syndrome - the ''E'' is for endocrinopathy; the cause is a [[paraprotein]] excreted by a plasmacytoma or [[multiple myeloma]]; other features are [[polyneuropathy]], organomegaly ([[hepatomegaly]] and [[splenomegaly]]), M-protein (paraprotein) and skin changes.
* Several very [[rare disease]]s.

Overview

Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome (APS) can be classified into APS type 1, APS type 2 and APS type 3 on the basis of organ involvement. APS type 1 commonly presents with mucocutaneous candidiasis, hypoparathyroidism and Addison's disease. APS type 2 most commonly presents with Addison's disease, autoimmune thyroiditis and diabetes mellitus type 1. APS type 3 usually presents with autoimmune thyroiditis, diabetes mellitus type 1 and pernicious anemia.

Classification

On the basis of organ involvement, autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome (APS) can be classified into APS type 1, APS type 2 and APS type 3.[1][2][3]
