摘要
We report the first case of Sjogren's syndrome causing gross lacrimal gland swelling and secondary hypoglobus and uncharacteristically absent sicca syndrome. Histopathological diagnosis of the excision biopsy of the orbital lobe of the gland confirmed a mixed T and B cell infiltrate of the gland with no lymphomatous transformation. The condition remains quiescent following complete excision.
