Pseudolymphoma of the liver associated with Sjögren's syndrome

Scand J Rheumatol. 2001;30(2):117-9. doi: 10.1080/03009740151095466.

Abstract

Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is known to be associated with pseudolymphoma in several organs. We describe a patient with SS complicated by a hepatic pseudolymphoma. Although the development of a hepatic pseudolymphoma is extremely rare, this disorder should be taken into consideration in the differential diagnosis of space occupying lesions related to autoimmune diseases such as SS.
