Sjogren syndrome presented with dibrachial neuropathy clinic: A Case Report

Abstract

Sjögren syndrome (SS) can affect either central nervous system (CNS) or peripheral nervous system (PNS). Symmetric sensory-motor peripheral neuropathy and pure sensorial symmetric poly-neuropathy are the most common diseases observed in relation to PNS. Rarely, asymmetrical polyneuropathy such as mononeuritis multiplex and brachial neuropathy may be observed. In this article, we present the clinical and electrophysiological properties of a case which arises with dibrachial neuropathy. Our case is important in terms of evaluation of SS during definitive diagnosis and perform-ing related examinations, especially in patients with a subacute- chronical asymmetric weakness.
