Adipose tissue infiltration in minor salivary glands of patients with Sjögren’s syndrome: Lack of significant correlation with the disease. An image analysis of 174 cases
Fatty infiltration in minor salivary gland biopsies and its correlation to systemic autoimmune diseases are controversial in the literature. Presence and extent of fatty infiltration in minor salivary glands of 107 Sjögren’s syndrome patients and 67 age-matched sicca controls were compared with stat...
