[Hashimoto's thyroiditis and Sjögren syndrome. Association or autoimmune multiple syndrome?].
A case of Hashimoto's thyroiditis associated with incomplete Sjögren's syndrome is revised. Both immune disorders are together not just as a casual event, but literature says that common mechanisms could have something to be. Previous publications express that autoimmune thyroid dysfunction is frequently associated with primary Sjögren's syndrome and should be sought clinically and by laboratory test in all these patients.
