| Popis: |
Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of exocrine glands with autoimmune etiology. Neurological symptoms occur in approximately 20% of patients with Sjögren’s syndrome. Neurological symptoms may occur before the onset of sicca symptoms such as; dry eyes and dry mouth. The prevalence of peripheral and central neurological manifestations in Sjögren syndrome are about 15% and 5% respectively. CNS involvement is much less common than peripheral nervous system involvement. In this case, our patient presented symptoms of transverse myelitis; however, the serum Anti-Ro/SSA and anti-La/SSB antibodies were negative and there were no dry eyes and dry mouth. |
