    Author: Kahvecioglu S, Ersoy A, Akdag I, Vuruskan H, Calisir B.
    Journal: Amyloid; 2008 Mar; 15(1):65-8. PubMed ID: 18266124.
    Abstract:
    Secondary amyloidosis presents with a variety of systemic symptoms or signs. Amyloid diseases can be associated with potentially life-threatening hemorrhage. Although bleeding manifestations are common in amyloidosis, renal bleeding is rare and generally due to trauma, cyst and malignancy. For the first time we present a ureamic patient who was diagnosed with AA amyloidosis after unilateral nephrectomy because of spontaneous perirenal hematoma.
