Exocrine glands other than salivary and lacrimal glands may be affected less frequently. The most common mode of presentation is musculoskeletal system involvement. Articular signs and symptoms include arthralgias, morning stiffness, and chronic polyarthritis that resemble those seen in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Compared with RA, the arthritis tends to be more relapsing and remitting, and stiffness is less marked. The distinction fromRAis that, there is not any erosive changes neither on direct radiography nor magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).We report a patient of primary SS presented with erosive arthritis.
