Localized Amyloidosis Involving the Nasal Cavity

Localized amyloidosis of the ureter.

A case of localized amyloidosis of the distal ureter in a 51-year-old man is described. Pertinent features of previously reported cases are described, and the difficulty of distinguishing this entity from primary carcinoma of the ureter is discussed.

Primary Localized Vesical Amyloidosis Mimicking Bladder Carcinoma: A Case Report

Amyloidosis of urinary bladder is a rare condition and may be primary or secondary in nature. A case of primary localized vesical amyloidosis (VA) in a 40-yr-old man is described confused with neoplasm by cystoscopic, urographic. Surgical specimens obtained by transurethral resection (TUR) were diagnostic and histologically revealed amyloid deposits in sub-epithelial stroma with chronic inflamm...

Oral Localized Amyloidosis

Paraganglioma of the nasal cavity.

Paragangliomata of the head and neck, although a recognised entity, are extremely rare tumours and will be encountered by only a few clinicians. Furthermore, the nasal cavity and nasopharynx are among the least common sites in which this neoplasm may arise. We describe a case of a paraganglioma of the nasal cavity mucosa and draw attention to the difficulties encountered in predicting the biolo...

It is more prevalent in women between the fourth and sixth decades, reaching primarily the inferior nasal turbinates. Objectives Reporting and assisting the systematization of more accurate diagnostic methods in clinical and complementary investigation of vascu...
