A Case of Alopecia Areata Associated with Myasthenia Gravis and Thymoma / 대한피부과학회지

Alopecia areata is infrequently associated with other diseases, such as, atopic dermatitis, Down syndrome and various autoimmune diseases including thyroiditis, vitiligo, connective tissue diseases, Addison's disease and pernicious anemia. However the association of alopecia areata with myasthenia gravis, a known autoimmune disease, accompanied by thymoma has been rarely reported. We describe herein such a case.
