title: [Sjogren's syndrome and the "dry syndrome" in combination with lung diseases].
abstract: Four cases of Sjogren's disease are reported: 2 cases with pulmonary syndrome (fibrosing alveolitis) and 2 cases with respiratory sarcoidosis. The diagnosis was made basing on xerostomia and xerophthalmia. Corticosteroid treatment produced only a partial response. The disease took a chronic course in all the patients. Antibacterial drugs were a failure in all the patients.
