  • Title: [Chronic hepatitis C and Gougerot-Sjogren syndrome. Apropos of a case].
    Author: Poët JL, Garnier PP, Tonolli-Serabian I, Mattei JP, Gauthier A, Roux H.
    Journal: Rev Rhum Ed Fr; 1993 Apr; 60(4):305-7. PubMed ID: 8167629.
    Abstract:
    The authors report a patient with concomitant Sjögren's syndrome and chronic hepatitis C. Close associations between autoimmune liver disease, chronic hepatitis C, and Sjögren's syndrome have been demonstrated. The most likely hypothesis involves triggering of an autoimmune cascade by the hepatitis C virus. Prevalence of hepatitis C virus infection in patients with Sjögren's syndrome and potential therapeutic implications of this disease combinations remain to be determined.
