Abstract We describe a male patient with Sjögren's syndrome, whose initial clinical manifestation was extraglandular. The kidney was the main organ affected in the form of distal renal tubular acidosis that led to nephrocalcinosis as a complication during its natural progression. These findings led to the diagnosis of autoimmune exocrinopathy, with clinical remission and stabilization of renal function being achieved with the use of steroids.

Palabras clave : Sjogren´s syndrome; Distal renal tubular acidosis; Nephrocalcinosis.
