Abstract:
Primary Sj(o)gren' s Syndrome (pSS)is a chronic autoimmune disease with complex and diverse clinical manifestations.It is characterized by lymphocyte infiltration of exocrine glands such as the salivary gland and lacrimal gland leading to insufficient secretion of the gland,manifested as dry mouth and dry eyes.The disease in addition to exocrine glands cause damage,but also involving organs outside the gland,resulting in systemic systemic injury.The pathogenesis of pSS is not clear yet.Currently,symptomatic treatment is the mainstay of pSS,and the exact treatment is lacking.However,there are some new treatments in recent years.
