A case of tracheobronchial amyloidosis presenting with acute myeloid leukemia
Localized tracheobronchial amyloidosis (TBA) is a rare form of pulmonary amyloidosis that is characterized by amyloidosis accumulation in the trachea and main bronchus submucosa. TBA is usually localized in the lung and is not associated with systemic amyloidosis. Although patients may be asymptomat...

| description | Localized tracheobronchial amyloidosis (TBA) is a rare form of pulmonary
amyloidosis that is characterized by amyloidosis accumulation in the trachea
and main bronchus submucosa. TBA is usually localized in the lung and is not
associated with systemic amyloidosis. Although patients may be asymptomatic
at first, they may develop dyspnea, recurrent cough, and hemoptysis attacks
as the lesions narrow the tracheobronchial tree. Histochemical examination of
biopsies taken with flexible bronchoscopy after thorax CT findings is usually
used to make the diagnosis. There has never been a case reported in which
TBA and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) coexisted. We report the first case of
TBA in a patient diagnosed with AML. |
