Abstract

Sjögren's syndrome was described in 1933 with the triad arthritis, dry eye and dry mouth. It`s characterized by lymphocyte infiltration in exocrine glands and in other organs, with the production of various autoantibodies. It has several renal manifestations, such as renal tubular acidosis. Periodic Hypokalemic Palisys is a rare manifestation due to renal tubular acidosis.
