Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndrome (APS) type 3 is a multisystem disorder characterized by the coexistence of multiple autoimmune conditions, including Hashimoto's thyroiditis, vitiligo, and celiac disease. This syndrome predominantly affects women, with a strong genetic predisposition associated with HLA haplotypes. Diagnosis requires the identification of at least two concurrent autoimmune diseases through detailed clinical history, laboratory testing, and specific diagnostic criteria. The therapeutic approach involves targeted interventions for each condition. Multidisciplinary collaboration and patient education are essential to improving quality of life, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis and a personalized management strategy.

Palabras clave : thyroiditis; vitiligo; therapeutic approach.
