Resumo

A 57-year-old white man developed Hashimoto's thyroiditis, bullous pemphigoid, and autoimmune neutropenia during the last year of his life. In addition, he had alopecia universalis since the age of 21 and rheumatoid arthritis since the age of 38. This unique constellation of autoimmune diseases has not been reported previously. Its significance is discussed in relation to the polyglandular failure syndrome and thymoma-related autoimmune disease.
