  • Title: Tracheobronchial amyloidosis managed with multimodality therapies.
    Author: Sommer P, Kumar G, Lipchik RJ, Patel JJ.
    Journal: Ther Adv Respir Dis; 2014 Apr; 8(2):48-52. PubMed ID: 24594977.
    Abstract:
    Amyloidosis is a systemic disease involving abnormal extracellular deposition of amyloid and autologous fibrillar protein material in β-pleated sheets. Accumulation of this abnormal protein leads to organ dysfunction, although respiratory tract involvement is rare. We present two cases of tracheobronchial amyloidosis successfully treated with surgery and radiation.
