- W4307991189 abstract "Abstract We report a patient with combined pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and autoimmune polyglandular syndrome (APS) type 2. A 41 y/o woman with hypothyroidism presented for right heart (RHC) in the work up of PAH. Pt had a medical history of PAH diagnosed by transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) and hypothyroidism. She reported symptoms of fatigue, shortness of breath with increased pigmentation of her skin progressive for several years. Preadmission lab found hyponatremia of 126 and potassium of 6.6. She was admitted and treated with IV insulin with D50, kayexalate, IV fluids. A random 11 AM cortisol was 0.57 mcg/dl N: AM: 6. 0–30. 0 mcg/dl; PM: 3. 0–16. 0 mcg/dl. Acosyntropin test was ordered. Pt failed the stimulation test (baseline 0.39, 30 min 0.49, 60 min 0.50, with an ACTH at baseline of 1423 pg/ml N: 7.2-63.3). Pt was started on hydrocortisone 20 mg AM/10 mg PM with fludrocortisone 0.1mg. On follow up at 2 weeks, her energy, mood, appetite and breathing tolerance had improved. Follow up RHC in 4 weeks found normalization of right heart pressures. APS is a collection of autoimmune diseases. Type I APS, caused by a defect in the autoimmune regulator (AIRE) gene, is diagnosed with two of three conditions, chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis, hypoparathyroidism, and adrenal cortical insufficiency. Type II APS (formally Schmidt's Syndrome), associated with HLA haplotypes DR3 (DQB*0201) and DR4 (DQB1*0302), is diagnosed with chronic autoimmune adrenal insufficiency with either Type 1 DM or chronic autoimmune thyroid disease (commonly Hashimotos but can be Graves). It typically presents later in life compared to APS I, age 30-40s. The association between PAH is rare but has been noted in several case studies. It has been associated with APS I in Korniszewski et al. and Bhansali et al. For APS II, the first association was reported by Barrou et al. of a patient with hypothyroidism, hypogonadism, and adrenal insufficiency who later developed PAH. Two cases reported by García-Hernández et al found PAH with positive adrenal antibodies without adrenal insufficiency. In 2009 Walid R. et al. reported a case of severe adrenal insufficiency (hypotension, hypokalemia) with PAH. She improved with steroids, but her PAH was present on TTE four years after treatment started. Pt in that case declined RHC. The patient in this case study proceeded with a RHC which did show normalization of right heart pressures, the first reported case to document normalization of PAH with replacement steroid treatment.
