  • Title: Remission of nephrotic syndrome in amyloidosis associated with a hypernephroma.
    Author: Tang AL, Davies DR, Wing AJ.
    Journal: Clin Nephrol; 1989 Nov; 32(5):225-8. PubMed ID: 2582647.
    Abstract:
    Nephrotic syndrome due to renal amyloidosis in association with hypernephroma underwent gradual but complete remission with loss of proteinuria after unilateral nephrectomy. Remission persisted for over five years despite the development of intracranial metastatic disease and the administration of dexamethasone, but relapse occurred 6 months before eventual death. This case history appears to be unique amongst the descriptions of tumor-associated amyloidosis.
