    Author: Smelten N, De Marneffe P, Cornette M, Dechenne C.
    Journal: Rev Med Liege; 2008 Feb; 63(2):64-8. PubMed ID: 18372542.
    Abstract:
    The EDTA (European Dialysis and Transplantation Association) statistic data on kidney diseases in ageing population point out vascular and/or metabolic origins. We report here a case of a rare cause of renal insufficiency, a Gougerot-Sjögren primary syndrome, diagnosed in an old patient. Renal and salivary gland biopsies were performed. The invasive investigation allowed an accurate diagnosis and an etiologic treatment.
