The association between autoimmune diseases, mostly rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematous, celiac disease and Sjögren syndrome, and lymphoma has been widely demonstrated by several epidemiologic studies. By a not yet entirely elucidated mechanism, chronic activation/stimulation of the immune system, along with the administration of specific treatments, may lead to persistent stimulation of both of B- and T-cells, and to the onset of different types of lymphoma in such patients. Specifically, patients affected by may develop lymphomas may years after the original diagnosis. Several epidemiologic, hematologic and histological factors may anticipate the progression from Sjögren syndrome into lymphoma but, to the best of our knowledge, a definite pathogenetic mechanism for such progression is still missing. In fact, while the association between Sjögren syndrome and non-Hodgkin lymphoma, mostly diffuse large B-cell and extranodal marginal zone lymphomas is well established, many other variables, such as time of onset, gender predilection, sites of occurrence, subtype of lymphoma and predictive factors still remain unclear. We report on a rare case of primary breast lymphoma occurring three years after the diagnosis of Sjögren syndrome in a 57 y.o. patient. The diagnostic work-up, including radiograms, core needle biopsy and histological examination are discussed, along with emerging data from the recent literature, thus highlighting the usefulness of breast surveillance in Sjögren syndrome patients.
