  • Title: [Current concept of Gougerot-Sjögren syndrome].
    Author: Escande JP.
    Journal: Rev Rhum Mal Osteoartic; 1977; 44(7-9):455-9. PubMed ID: 578587.
    Abstract:
    The Gougerot-Sjögren syndrome is giving rise to an everincreasing number of publications. Since the initial work by Gougerot in France and Sjögren in Sweden, the most important publications have been coming from the United States of America, particularly the series from the NIH at Bethesda. Since Bunim, Talal, Bloch and colleagues have taken up this topic, the conception of the disease which has become established is that of an auto-immune condition which or may not be associated with a rheumatoid polyarthritis or related diseases. It may be asked whether such a conception does in fact permit a better approach to patients suffering from the Gougerot-Sjögren syndrome. It might seem more useful to separate the exocrine syndromes from the concomittant immunitary symptoms more clearly. A further important problem is that raised by the perfection of the means of detecting the Gougerot-Sjögren syndrome. This poses a key problem : that of the borderlines of this syndrome.
