Bilateral submandibular gland lymphoma in Sjögren's syndrome.
Salivary gland lymphoma is associated with Sjögren's syndrome. A case of bilateral submandibular gland and sublingual gland lymphoma, arising in Sjögren's syndrome, is presented. A lymphoma involving more than one salivary gland may occur in Sjögren's syndrome, and there is an increased risk of developing an extrasalivary lymphoma.
