The prevalence of abnormalities on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) varies in primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) patients and they are generally multiple hyperintense areas in the subcortical and periventricular white matter on T2-weighted and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery sequences. Here, we report brainstem involvement in a patient with pSS that was extensive on MRI, but reversible. The patient's outcome was positive. To our knowledge, a similar case has not previously been described.
原发性干燥综合征（pSS）患者的脑磁共振成像（MRI）异常的发生率各不相同，通常在 T2 加权和液体衰减反转恢复序列上表现为皮质下和脑室周围白质的多个高信号区。在这里，我们报告了一例 pSS 患者的脑干受累，MRI 显示广泛受累，但可逆转。患者的预后良好。据我们所知，以前没有描述过类似的病例。
