Vasculopathy in Sjögren’s syndrome
Zeitschrift für Rheumatologie, 04/21/09
Feist E et al. - In patients with Sjögren’s syndrome, manifestation of vasculitis, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and glomerulonephritis, as well as positive cryoglobulins and decreased levels of complement factors, are considered negative prognostic markers. Various immunosuppressive strategies, usually in co-medication with glucocorticoids, are used for the treatment of vasculitis in Sjögren’s syndrome. For refractory and severe manifestations, a B-cell-targeted therapy with Rituximab should be also considered.
