Abstract
Amyloidosis is a generalized metabolic disorder characterized by deposition of insoluble protein in the extracellular space of various organs. We have treated a woman presenting with menorrhagia and anemia, who was subsequently diagnosed as having systemic amyloidosis. This represents the first known documentation of amyloid involvement of the female reproductive tract.Entities:
