Granulocytopenia with marked lymphocytosis manifesting Sjogren syndrome
American Journal of Hematology
|January 1, 1980
Abstract:
Sjogren syndrome is a multi-system disease leading to diverse organ involvement during its course [1, 2]. Hematologic abnormalities described in Sjogren syndrome include anemia, mild leukopenia [3, 4], eosinophilia, elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate, hypergammaglobulinemia, mixed cryoglobulinemia, and a variety of autoantibodies [5]. Marked lymphocytosis with granulocytopenia is distinctly unusual and has not been previously reported. We report a case of Sjogren syndrome who presented with constellation of the latter problems without prominent sicca manifestations.
