摘要

Primary Sjögren's syndrome is an autoimmune connective tissue disease characterised by dry eyes and mouth with foci of infiltrating lymphocytes on salivary gland biopsy. It is relatively under-diagnosed and often under treated. The clinical presentation may be non-specific and it is not uncommon for symptoms to have been present for up to 10 years before the diagnosis is made. Approximately 60% of patients carry the characteristic anti Ro and/or La antibodies and tend to have a more systemic form of the disease and present younger. Extra-glandular features are common and often include fatigue and arthralgia. There is an association with other autoimmune diseases including autoimmune thyroid disease and primary biliary cirrhosis. Patients often present late, in part because they adapt to the symptoms but also because there is significant salivary and tear reserve which means that salivary flow rates may have fallen to 30-40% of normal before a patient complains of a dry mouth. Traditionally treatment has been symptomatic with topical salivary and tear substitutes. There is evidence however that active treatment, especially in the early stages of the disease, may be beneficial. Treatment with hydroxychloroquine is supported by anecdotal evidence and studies confirm an improvement in fatigue and a lowering of immunoglobulin levels.
