In a retrospective study, we used a series of 29 patients with Sjögren's Syndrome diagnosed according to the new European criteria (Cl. Vitali, S. Bombardieri, H. M. Moutsopoulos et al.) (8). (Arthritis Rheum 1993; 36:340-7). A labial biopsy technique allowed to classify these patients into the anatomical "scores" formerly related by Chisholm and Mason and Chomette et al. Referring to these criteria, only 45% of patients presented a characteristic histopathological pattern. If another complementary criterium, i.e. ductal tropism of lymphoid infiltrates, was added, that percentage remained low (50% only). Thus, these results would suggest the following considerations: the classical histopathological criteria do not seem sufficiently specific; other histological criteria such as ductal lesions previously noted by Leroy et al. must in addition be looked for; thus it would seem to be of considerable value to use in the future complementary quantitative studies by means of morphometric methods.

D012189 Retrospective Studies Studies used to test etiologic hypotheses in which inferences about an exposure to putative causal factors are derived from data relating to characteristics of persons under study or to events or experiences in their past. The essential feature is that some of the persons under study have the disease or outcome of interest and their characteristics are compared with those of unaffected persons.
