Sarcoidosis. 1988 Mar;5(1):68-70.
We report a case of a 57 year-old woman with Sjögren's syndrome and pulmonary complaints. After an initial evaluation, a lung biopsy was made and disclosed sarcoid lesions. This association is very rare, and the present case does not fulfill the criteria for TASS (Thyroiditis, Addison's disease, Sjögren, and Sarcoidosis). Sarcoidosis and Sjögren can coexist since both diseases may share the same immunological profile. This case report warrants further research on the overlapping of these diseases.
我们报告一例57岁患有干燥综合征并伴有肺部症状的女性病例。经过初步评估后，进行了肺活检，结果显示为结节病病变。这种关联非常罕见，且该病例不符合TASS（甲状腺炎、艾迪生病、干燥综合征和结节病）的标准。结节病和干燥综合征可能共存，因为这两种疾病可能具有相同的免疫特征。本病例报告值得对这些疾病的重叠情况进行进一步研究。
