Neuropathies induced by Sjögren's syndrome (SS) are usually axonal. Nevertheless some demyelinating neuropathies have been described in patients with SS. To date, the relationship between demyelinating neuropathies and SS remains imprecise.
A 75 year-old man presented with a chronic history of sensory disturbances linked to demyelinating neuropathy. Electroneuromyography revealed a demyelinating neuropathy and complementary tests revealed both Sjögren's syndrome (SS) and HMSN IA.
We suggested that an inherited affection might be researched before considering that demyelinating neuropathy might be a form of peripheral nervous system involvement in SS.
