Abstract

A multisystem chronic autoimmune disorder, Sjogren syndrome, is characterized by lymphocytic infiltrates in the exocrine glands. Keratoconjunctivitis sicca and xerostomia are the two pathognomic findings in Sjogren syndrome. Here, we present a case of a 30-year-oldan old Indian woman presenting with primary Sjogren syndrome. The clinical features, diagnostic modalities, treatment options, and management of complications have been discussed.
