title: [Auto-immune polyglandular syndrome in an adult with chronic active hepatitis].
abstract: We present a case report with IgA deficiency, pernicious anemia, chronic active hepatitis, insulino-dependent diabetes mellitus and hypogonadism. A diagnosis of Polyglandular Auto-immune Syndrome was done and we discuss the difficulty in including this particular case in any of the types of the Neufeld's classification of Polyglandular Auto-immune Disease.
