BACKGROUND This review is aimed at defining the frequency, anatomical and clinical presentation, pathogenesis, predictive factors and treatment of malignant lymphoproliferative diseases occurring in the course of Sjögren's syndrome. BACKGROUND The frequency of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is estimated to be about 7%. Other malignant lymphoproliferative diseases (Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, multiple myeloma, Hodgkin's disease) are rarely observed. NHL is most frequently extranodal (affecting the salivary glands, stomach, lung, etc) in low grade malignancy (MALT lymphoma [mucosa associated lymphoid tissue]). The pathogenesis of NHL in Sjögren's syndrome is a multi-step process, including B cell monoclonal proliferation, oncogenic and/or infectious agents, and/or cytokines. Various predictive factors such as persistent enlargment of parotid glands, adenopathy, splenomegaly, mixed cryoglobulinemia, monoclonal gammopathy, suggest potential lymphoma evolution. The treatment of Sjögren's syndrome-associated NHL depends on the type of lymphoma. Moreover, in patients with low-grade lymphoma therapeutical strategies varies according to the stage and evolution of the disease. CONCLUSIONS Future prospective longitudinal studies should permit to define the best criteria for malignant transformation and to improve therapeutical strategies.

D008228 Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin Any of a group of malignant tumors of lymphoid tissue that differ from HODGKIN DISEASE, being more heterogeneous with respect to malignant cell lineage, clinical course, prognosis, and therapy. The only common feature among these tumors is the absence of giant REED-STERNBERG CELLS, a characteristic of Hodgkin's disease.

D009857 Oncogenes Genes whose gain-of-function alterations lead to NEOPLASTIC CELL TRANSFORMATION. They include, for example, genes for activators or stimulators of CELL PROLIFERATION such as growth factors, growth factor receptors, protein kinases, signal transducers, nuclear phosphoproteins, and transcription factors. A prefix of "v-" before oncogene symbols indicates oncogenes captured and transmitted by RETROVIRUSES; the prefix "c-" before the gene symbol of an oncogene indicates it is the cellular homolog (PROTO-ONCOGENES) of a v-oncogene.
