Özet
Sjögren’s disease (SjD) is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by lymphocytic infiltration of the exocrine glands, which can also affect the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, hepatobiliary system, and pancreatic exocrine tissues. Approximately one-third of patients experience GI-related symptoms, with xerostomia, dysphagia, dyspepsia, and atrophic gastritis being the most commonly reported manifestations. SjD is also associated with autoimmune liver diseases, including autoimmune hepatitis and primary biliary cholangitis. Pancreatic involvement is less frequent, but may present as autoimmune pancreatitis or exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. The complexity of SjD and the variety of its manifestations underscore the importance of a multidisciplinary management approach, where collaboration among healthcare professionals is crucial for optimising patient outcomes.
