Abstract

The autoimmune-related basis in the pathogenesis of celiac disease is merely supported by the increased frequency of association with other autoimmune disorders. We present a peculiar case report associating three different autoimmune disorders in a teenage boy: Celiac Disease, Type1 Diabetes and Crohn Disease.

Keywords:
