Abstract
|
|
|
|
Amyloidosis, a disease of uncertain etiology, is characterized by extracellular deposition of an abnormal proteinaceous material. Amyloidosis is uncommon in the urogenital system. However, its recognition is important since it is indistinguishable from neoplastic or inflammatory lesions in its clinical manifestations and radiologic findings. The urologist and surgical pathologist should be aware of this disorder to reach right diagnosis.
