ABSTRACT
We present a 21-years old woman with alopecia universalis, generalized vitiligo, and Graves' disease. She had had thyroidectomy in early childhood and was receiving replacement therapy with levothyroxine. The patient was treated with systemic PUVA and glucocorticoid in combination with topical treatment for alopecia. After 6 months of treatment, alopecia was reversed but vitiligo was unchanged
