Autoimmune Hepatic Syndrome in a Male Patient: A Rare Association of Type 1 Autoimmune Hepatitis with Type 1 Diabetes – A Case Report and Literature Review
Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a rare chronic liver disease of immune origin that predominantly affects women. Its occurrence in men is unusual and often associated with a more severe course. We report the case of a male patient with cirrhosis secondary to type 1 AIH, in association with type 1 diabetes and subclinical autoimmune thyroiditis. This case highlights the importance of screening for associated autoimmune conditions, even in male patients. A review of the literature is provided to discuss clinical, prognostic, and therapeutic implications.
