  • Title: [Type AA renal amyloidosis in sarcoidosis].
    Author: Tchénio X, Bertocchi M, McGrégor B, Daoud S, Mornex JF, Cordier JF.
    Journal: Rev Mal Respir; 1996 Dec; 13(6):601-2. PubMed ID: 9036507.
    Abstract:
    Sarcoidosis is an uncommon cause of secondary amyloidosis. We describe in this paper the case of a 39 years old patient, with a pulmonary and hepatosplenic sarcoidosis. A nephrotic syndrome led to a renal biopsy which showed AA type amyloidosis. As no other cause of amyloidosis has been found we admitted that it was a result of sarcoidosis which was associated with the unusual inflammatory syndrome.
