title: [Juvenile Gougerot Sjögren syndrome: report of 3 cases].
abstract: Gougerot Sjögren syndrome is rare during childhood. Diagnosis in adult patients is usually based on sets of criteria combining clinical, serological, and salivary gland histopathological findings. In the pediatric age group, clinical manifestations might be different from the adult form. We report on 3 cases of childhood Gougerot Sjögren syndrome.
