For pSS patients with suspected NHL, mSGB histology enabled NHL diagnosis in half of them, MALT was found in 95.8% and all mSGB+ were MALT lymphomas, thereby avoiding more invasive biopsy. Our results suggest that mSGB should be obtained at pSS diagnosis and repeated during follow-up when NHL is suspected.
