We describe vessels within the lymphocytic infiltrate of the salivary glands in Sjögren's syndrome that are identical to those specialized for lymphocyte transport in lymph nodes. These vessels may represent a mechanism for increased lymphocyte traffic into the gland and thereby contribute significantly to the inflammatory process.
