  • Title: [A very unusual case of amyloidosis].
    Author: Jouvin MH, Nochy D, Bruneval P, Guettier C, Druet P, Bariéty J.
    Journal: Nephrologie; 1985; 6(3):159-62. PubMed ID: 3935940.
    Abstract:
    This case report describes a patient with IgG lambda myeloma and vascular amyloidosis. Remarkable is the presence of mesangial granular deposits revealed by electron microscopy and positive with anti-IgG and anti-kappa anti-serum in an immunofluorescence study. Granular dense deposits were also found at the inner side of the basement membrane of the skin and were positive with anti-kappa anti-serum in immunofluorescence study. Because no L kappa q light chain proliferation could be demonstrated, the nature and significance of these kappa deposits are not clear.
