    Journal: Rev Med Interne; 2005 Feb; 26(2):141-4. PubMed ID: 15710261.
    Abstract:
    INTRODUCTION: Primary Sjogren syndrome is considered as the most frequent connective tissue disease. Neurological complications may affect the peripheral nervous system and to lesser extent the central nervous system. Autonomic system nervous dysfunction and epilepsy have been rarely reported. EXEGESIS: We present on case of Sjogren's syndrome with epilepsy and autonomic nervous system dysfunction. The epilepsia respond to valproate. CONCLUSION: Autoimmune investigations for Sjogren's syndrome should be initiated in any patient presenting with unexplained neurologic manifestations.
