Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease, mainly affecting exocrine glands. Nervous system can also be involved, which can represent the initial manifestation of pSS in some patients. Due to the lack of any uniform diagnostic criteria, pSS is easy to be missed or misdiagnosed. In this review, we provided an in-depth look at clinical manifestations and research hotspots of neurological involvement in pSS. DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1672-6731.2019.01.012
