A member asked:

I have sjogren's syndrome.i have had enlarged submandibular glands on both sides. ct scan report suggested no mass or stones found.is biopsy needed?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe: If there's suspicion of lymphoma. Have you had anti-Ro / anti-La drawn (SSA/SSB)? Since Sjogren's isn't all that treatable, making a solid diagnosis may not be key -- or an insurance company may want it.
