Gastrointestinal amyloidosis presenting as enterocolitis on abdominal CT scan.

Abstract

The imaging findings of amyloidosis are nonspecific and diverse due to its association with various chronic diseases such as multiple myeloma. We report a case of gastrointestinal amyloidosis presenting as enterocolitis on a contrast enhanced CT scan of the abdomen.
