A 72-year-old woman presented with a 10 X 10 cm pseudolymphoma of the lung and Sjögren's syndrome. She was treated with weekly chrysotherapy for 4 years and had gradual diminution of the lung mass over this period along with normalization of her parotid gland scintiscan. In addition her rheumatoid factor titer (RF) of 1:160,000 fell to zero, IgM level became normal and lymphocyte mitogen response improved. On 5-year followup the patient remains stable with a negative RF, normal IgM and stable chest radiographs.
