We report the case of a woman with a primary Sjögren's syndrome who developed asymptomatic anetoderma lesions with no other pathology responsible. This dermatosis has been associated with many autoimmune disorders, in particular lupus erythematosus and lupus-like syndromes. Our literature review found only one previous description of primary anetoderma associated with primary Sjögren's syndrome.
