Diagnostic value of minor salivary gland biopsy for Sjögren's syndrome in children: A monocentric retrospective study over 10 years
MSGB demonstrates good sensitivity and specificity, but the predictive values and likelihood ratios make it a poor screening test. However, when combined with other criteria such as the presence of anti-SSA antibodies, the specificity of MSGB is improved. A larger prospective study should be carried out to support our results and clarify the good indications for MSGB.
