Abstract :
Sjogren’s syndrome is a chronic slowly progressive autoimmune disease characterised by lymphocytic infiltration of exocrine glands resulting in xerostomia and dry eyes with systemic manifestations. The disease may present alone (primary sjogren’s syndrome,pSS) or in association with other autoimmune rheumatic diseases (secondary sjogren’s syndrome).It primarily affects middle aged women. We herein report a case who presented with hypokalemic paralysis which on further work up found to be secondary to pSS.
