“…Xerostomia leads to the development of opportunistic infections and oral mucosal manifestations in the oral cavity. It can correspond to selected inflammatory and diagnostic factors of the disease's severity and to histo-pathological changes in salivary glands [15][16][17]. However, xerostomia is often less severe in IgG4-RD than in SS and it is usually sensitive to immunosuppressive and steroid therapy [5,18].…”

According to a new concept for the classification and division of autoimmune diseases, Mikulicz's disease and Küttner's tumor belong to immunoglobulin G4-related diseases (IgG4-RD) and fulfil their diagnostic criteria. The aim of this study was to summarize the new classification concepts of IgG4-RD in the head and neck area and to review their clinical, histopathological and serologic criteria and the methods used in the diagnostic workup with respect to their advantages, limitations and differentiative value. The PubMed, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and Scopus databases were searched for articles published between 2009 and 2019 using the following key words: IgG4-related diseases, Mikulicz's disease, Küttner's tumor, salivary glands, xerostomia. Results of the review of the literature revealed that Mikulicz's disease and Küttner's tumor fulfil the same diagnostic criteria but may manifest different clinical symptoms which determine the choice of the different diagnostic tools.

“…If lacrimal glands are affected, it is called Mikulicz disease. However, the clinical presentation of SS covers a broad spectrum with variable combinations of systemic extra-glandular manifestations such as peripheral neuropathy, arthralgia, lung disease, skin and mucosa manifestations, and other features [5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. The population prevalence of SS has been estimated at 0.5-1%, and the male/female ratio is approximately 1 : 9.…”

“…The population prevalence of SS has been estimated at 0.5-1%, and the male/female ratio is approximately 1 : 9. Sjögren's syndrome can occur as a primary disease (pSS) or in association with another connective tissue disease as a secondary SS (sSS) [5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. The presence of mononuclear cell aggregates around the ducts and acini of exocrine glands result in functional and structural alternations at the level of these glands and impair their secretory function [4].…”

“…Previous classifications of SS were based on the combination of both objective and subjective tests. They included clinical, serological, and histopatho-logical features of SS [7][8][9][10]. The current diagnostic criteria of SS, approved in 2016 by the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) and the European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR), are based on the sum of five items: anti-SSA/Ro antibody positivity and focal lymphocytic sialadenitis (FLS) with a focus score of 1 foci/4 mm 2 , each scoring 3; an abnormal ocular staining score of 5 (or a van Bijsterveld score of 4); a Schirmer's test result of 5 mm/5 min; and an unstimulated salivary flow rate of 0.1 ml/minute, each scoring 1.…”

Labial salivary gland biopsy (LSGB) is a minimally invasive and safe surgical procedure performed in the diagnosis and monitoring of selected diseases such as Sjögren's syndrome (SS), sarcoidosis, and amyloidosis. The aim of this study is to present the main possibilities and indications for the usefulness of LSGB in these diseases, their histopathological criteria, and the main advantages and limitations. Histopathological confirmation of SS is based on the presence of lymphocytic infiltrates, known as focal lymphocytic sialadenitis (FLS). FLS refers to the histopathological pattern of the presence of one or more foci in the biopsies, while the tissue surrounding the foci is composed mainly of unaffected parenchyma. A focus is defined as an aggregate of ≥ 50 lymphocytes, and the focus score (FS) is the total number of foci per 4 mm 2 of salivary gland tissue. FLS should be distinguished from other types of sialadenitis such as nonspecific chronic sialadenitis, sclerosing chronic sialadenitis, granulomatous inflammation, and lymphomas. Streszczenie Biopsja wargowych gruczołów ślinowych (LSGB) jest minimalnie inwazyjnym i bezpiecznym zabiegiem chirurgicznym wykorzystywanym w diagnostyce i monitorowaniu wybranych chorób, takich jak zespół Sjögrena (SS), sarkoidoza, amyloidoza. Celem pracy było przedstawienie głównych możliwości i wskazań do zastosowania LSGB, kryteriów histopatologicznych, głównych zalet i ograniczeń. Histopatologiczne potwierdzenie SS opiera się na stwierdzeniu obecności nacieków limfocytarnych znanych jako ogniskowe limfocytarne zapalenie gruczołów ślinowych (FLS). Nazwa FLS odnosi się histopatologicznie do obecności jednego lub więcej ognisk w biopsji, podczas gdy ognisko jest otoczone głównie przez niezmienioną tkankę miąższową. Ognisko jest definiowane jako skupisko 50 lub więcej limfocytów, a wynik jest liczbą ognisk przypadającą na 4 mm 2 tkanki gruczołowej. Ogniskowe limfocytarne zapalenie gruczołów ślinowych powinno być różnicowane z innymi typami zapalenia, takimi jak niespecyficzne zapalenie gruczołów ślinowych, twardniejące przewlekłe zapalenie gruczołów ślinowych, zapalenie ziarniniakowe i chłoniaki.

“…The clinical features involve a wide variety of organs, including skin, eyes, oral cavity and salivary glands, and systems, including nervous, musculoskeletal, genitourinary and vascular, and each of these symptoms may be at times correctly attributed to SS or incorrectly attributed to another disease. Other organs may be involved in more than 30% of cases and, occasionally, extra-glandular manifestations can occur early during the course of the disease [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9].…”

Laryngological manifestations of Sjögren’s syndrome

Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by lymphocytic infiltration of exocrine glands and a range of extra-glandular features. The most common and earliest symptoms are oral and ocular dryness. The aim of this study is to present the most common otolaryngological manifestations of SS, their pathomechanism and possible aetiology. The most common oral signs and symptoms are xerostomia, tooth decay, fungal infections, traumatic oral lesions, dysphagia, dysgeusia, and inflammation of the salivary glands. The salivary glands of SS patients are characterised by chronic inflammation. The presence of foci is thus a hallmark of SS. A biopsy can be taken from either the labial or the parotid salivary gland. The most significant complication of SS is the development of lymphoproliferative malignancy, which occurs in about 5% of SS patients. The ultrasonic greyscale scoring system, glandular volume measurement, and intraglandular power Doppler ultrasonography are specific ultrasound parameters of SS.
