Sjögren's syndrome is a presumably autoimmune disease with pathologic findings of lymphocytic infiltration of the involved structures. Although the salivary and lacrimal glands are the most commonly involved sites, extraglandular lymphoproliferation also occurs. Upper and lower respiratory tract lymphoproliferation is known, but only one case of Sjögren's disease of the larynx has been previously reported. We present a case of laryngeal involvement in which the gross pathologic appearance is different from that in the earlier case report. The otolaryngologist should consider Sjögren's disease in the differential diagnosis of diffuse laryngeal lesions.
干燥综合征是一种推测为自身免疫性疾病，其病理表现为受累结构的淋巴细胞浸润。虽然唾液腺和泪腺是最常受累的部位，但腺外淋巴增殖也会发生。上、下呼吸道的淋巴增殖是已知的，但此前仅报道过一例喉干燥综合征病例。我们报告一例喉部受累病例，其大体病理表现与早期病例报告不同。耳鼻喉科医生在弥漫性喉部病变的鉴别诊断中应考虑干燥综合征。
