“…These include bronchopneumopathy ( 10-1 2), polyarthritis ( 1 3-1 5), Sjogren ' s syndrome (16), polymyositis (17,18), uveitis (19)(20)(21), and chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis (22,23). Since a wide spectrum of multiorgan disorders may result, Maruyamaet al proposed designating HTLV-I associated complex (HAC) as a new clinical entity (37).…”

“…Portanto, a alta freqüência de SS provável encontrada na população estudada (17,5%) está de acordo com os dados de literatura que também documentaram uma associação entre essa síndrome e a infecção pelo HTLV-1 (5,19,29) . Avaliando-se, nesse estudo, a freqüência da SS provável, de acordo com a presença de manifestações neurológicas, observou-se freqüência maior da doença no grupo de indivíduos com mielopatia, quando comparado com os infectados pelo HTLV-1 sem manifestações neurológicas.…”
