  • Title: Intestinal pseudoobstruction secondary to amyloidosis responsive to cisapride.
    Author: Fraser AG, Arthur JF, Hamilton I.
    Journal: Dig Dis Sci; 1991 Apr; 36(4):532-5. PubMed ID: 2007373.
    Abstract:
    A case of chronic intestinal pseudoobstruction secondary to systemic amyloidosis in a patient with multiple myeloma is described. Gastrointestinal symptoms and indices of nutrition improved markedly after commencing treatment with cisapride, which may have been responsible for relatively prolonged survival compared with similar reported cases.
