Abstract
Sjogren's syndrome is an autoimmune disease characterised by generalis ed lymphoproliferation. Patients have an increased risk of developing lymphomas which are usually derived from mucosa-associated lymphoid ti ssue (MALT). We report a low grade, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the skin and oral mucose in a patient with Sjogren's syndrome.
