Amyloidosis of renal pelvis and urinary bladder
Abstract
We describe a patient with amyloidosis of renal pelvis and 2 patients with urinary bladder amyloidosis. Clinical presentation in all of the cases mimicked cancer of the respective sites. Clinical diagnosis of amyloidosis is not possible, making biopsy mandatory. Immunology of amyloid formation and treatment of amyloidosis are discussed.
