Abstract

Demyelinating syndrome can rarely occur in Sjögren's syndrome or rheumatoid arthritis. We describe a patient of Sjögren's syndrome with multiple sclerosis-like features whose rheumatoid arthritis has been managed for 3 years. The patient presented paraparesis and urinary retention, and improved with high-dose corticosteroid therapy.

Keywords Sjögren's syndrome, Multiple sclerosis, Rheumatoid arthritis
