Amyloidosis--an unusual case of recurrent intestinal bleeding and sigmoid perforation: case report with review of the literature.

W Thaler¹, G Schatzer, P Eder, G Fichtel.

Abstract

We describe a patient with recurrent intestinal bleeding and sigmoid perforation due to amyloidosis. Hartmann's procedure was carried out with resection of the diseased sigmoid colon and by performing a terminal colostomy. The postoperative course was uneventful, but the patient died 3 months later of lobar pneumonia and multiple organ system failure.
