==Overview==
[Disease name] must be differentiated from other diseases that cause [clinical feature 1], [clinical feature 2], and [clinical feature 3], such as [differential dx1], [differential dx2], and [differential dx3].
Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome (APS) must be differentiated from other similar conditions which lead to multiple [[endocrine disorders]] such as  [[thymoma]], [[Kearns–Sayre syndrome]], [[POEMS syndrome]], and [[Wolfram syndrome]]. APS should also be differentiated among its subtypes such as APS type 1, type 2 and type 3.

Overview

Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome (APS) must be differentiated from other similar conditions which lead to multiple endocrine disorders such as thymoma, Kearns–Sayre syndrome, POEMS syndrome, and Wolfram syndrome. APS should also be differentiated among its subtypes such as APS type 1, type 2 and type 3.

Differentiating Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndrome From Other Diseases

Different types of autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome should be differentiated from each other. The following table characterizes the differences among various sub-types of APS.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]

Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome (APS) must be differentiated from other similar conditions which lead to multiple endocrine disorders such as POEMS syndrome, Hirata syndrome, Kearns–Sayre syndrome and Wolfram syndromes.[8][9][10][11][12]
