摘要: Seven patients with localized nodular pulmonary amyloidosis and four tracheobronchial are presented the pathological features described. The congophilia of these forms amyloid is resistant to potassium permanganate, compatible it representing immunoamyloid. This, together associated intense lymphocytic plasma cell infiltration suggests a local inflammatory aetiology.
