Abstract The neurologic symptoms of Sjogren Syndrome are often ignored. Mononeuritis multiplex is a peripheral motor neuropathy that is not rare with primary Sjogren Syndrome, but is less reported in literature. Early diagnosis of neurological symptoms can help prevent the progression of disease and thereby improve the patient’s quality of life. Here, we present a case report where the patient was under neurological consultation for mononeuritis multiplex with no reduction in symptoms for the past one year. She visited us with a complaint of recurrent parotid abscess, after clinical and laboratory examination, diagnosis of Sjogren syndrome was made. Identification of the relationship between Sjogren Syndrome and mononeuritis multiplex was the key to delivering proper treatment to this patient.
