    Introduction: Amyloidosis is an idiopathic disorder characterized by amyloid deposition leading to tissue damage and disease. Laryngeal amyloidosis is usually a localized phenomenon that is rarely accompanied by systemic involvement. Hoarseness is its most common symptom and the clinical findings in laryngoscopy are variable, nonspecific and difficult to be distinguished from other laryngea...

Isolated Laryngeal Amyloidosis

Localised Ureteric Amyloidosis Mimicking Urothelial Tumour

Amyloidosis is a pathological process characterised by extracellular deposition of fibrillar protein. Systemic amyloidosis with multiple organ involvement is more common than localised amyloidosis. Localised amyloid deposition in the urinary tract is uncommon and isolated involvement of the ureter and renal pelvis is a rare presentation of this uncommon disease. Primary localised amyloidosis of...

Primary localised cutaneous amyloidosis--a systematic review.

INTRODUCTION Amyloidosis is defined as extracellular deposits of heterogenic, misfolded proteins, amyloid fibrils, in various tissues. The aim of our study was to review the literature and to evaluate the risk of developing systemic amyloidosis (SA) and the risk of local recurrence of primary localised cutaneous amyloidosis (PLCA). The method of treatment was compared to the risk of local recur...
