Abstract
In a patient with widespread endobronchial amyloidosis, the amyloid deposits resulted in severe disability over a ten-year period from obstruction of large airways and from recurrent chest infections and atelectasis. Repeated excision of small quantities of amyloid material during rigid bronchoscopy under general anaesthetic have resulted in symptomatic relief and measurable improvement of aiways obstruction.Entities:
