[Pseudo-lymphomas of the ocular adnexa: their relations to Sjögren's syndrome (author's transl)]
Abstract:
Studies over the last fifteen years, of histological, immunological and hematological parameters has, led to the description of a non-malignant lymphoproliferation: a pseudo-lymphoma which is in the middle of the spectrum between glandular localisation of Sjögren's syndrome and frank neoplasia. This type of proliferation has been also observed in the conjunctiva, without antecedents of Sjögren syndrome. Histologically and immunologically, it is dysimmunitary process which has the potential to regress with appropriate immunosuppressive therapy, or to progress to malignant lymphoma.
