Abstract

We report a case of 63-year-old man with symmetrical joint swelling of the interphalangeal and metacarpal joints, associated with isolated hypogammaglobulinemia. Accessory glands biopsy revealed the presence of amyloidal deposits. PET/CT showed increased F-18 FDG activity in thickened soft tissues corresponding to amyloid arthropathy. Like multiple myeloma, PET/CT could be an interesting imaging in light-chain amyloidosis.
