“…8,12,13 Many studies observing a true coexistence of both diseases argued that the classification criteria in considering sarcoidosis and SS as mutually exclusive conditions needed further reevaluation. 8,12 Besides, a study in Spain reviewed 53 cases previously thought to have coexistent SS and sarcoidosis and found that 25 of them turned out to be SS-mimicking sarcoidosis based on histopathological examination of the exocrine glands. 12 It is interesting to note that 23 out of these 25 cases were consecutively diagnosed to have both diseases within just 1 year.…”

“…5 However, the correlation between autoimmune diseases and sarcoidosis has been reported frequently, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), autoimmune hepatitis, celiac disease, systemic sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Sj€ ogren's syndrome (SS), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), hypothyroidism and Graves' disease. 2,[6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23] Nevertheless, most of these studies fall into the category of either case reports 8,10,[13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] or small to medium hospital-based studies, 6,7,9 and the clinical significance of the association remains unclear. The main objective of this nationwide population-based case-control study in Taiwan is to clarify the autoimmune profiles in sarcoidosis patients.…”

“…34 Both sarcoidosis and Sjögren syndrome have an insidious onset, and patients who do not present with other manifestations of sarcoidosis may appear to have isolated Sjögren syndrome. 35 However, a detailed medical history, salivary gland biopsy, and serologies can help distinguish between the two conditions. Certain systemic complications such as uveitis, when present, can be more supportive of a diagnosis of sarcoid.…”

“…However, with accumulating evidence that Sjögren syndrome and sarcoidosis can coexist these criteria may change, and clinicians may need to evaluate for both conditions to determine whether a patient suffers from a single or a combined disorder. 23,35 Objective evaluation of keratoconjunctivitis sicca by ophthalmologic exam is helpful as a baseline measurement. Lip biopsy may also be useful in making a Sjögren syndrome diagnosis.…”

“…there were significant elevations in CD4-positive lymphocytes in the bronchial mucosa, an abnormality that is also described in sarcoidosis. In addition, the hLa-DR3 phenotype is associated with pSS and with a subgroup of patients with sarcoidosis [8].…”
