Long-term survival with diffuse interstitial pulmonary amyloidosis.

D J Kanada, O P Sharma.   

Abstract

A 51 year old man presenting with amyloidosis involving the lungs, the testes, the skin and the stomach has been followed for eight years. Serial pulmonary function tests revealed slowly progressive physiologic deterioration. The various clinical features and the lengths of survival in the previously reported cases of diffuse interstitial pulmonary amyloidosis are reviewed. The unusually long survival of this patient and its implications are discussed.
