Hilar and mediastinal lymphadenopathy associated with localized pulmonary amyloid is very rare. We describe two cases of this unusual combination, one of endobronchial amyloid with adenopathy and the other of nodular parenchymal amyloid with hilar nodes. In both these cases the nodes contained calcification, and in the nodular parenchymal case in particular, this appearance is highly suggestive of pulmonary amyloid.
与局限性肺淀粉样变相关的肺门和纵隔淋巴结肿大非常罕见。我们描述了两例这种不寻常的组合病例,一例是支气管内淀粉样变伴淋巴结肿大,另一例是结节性实质淀粉样变伴肺门淋巴结肿大。在这两例病例中,淋巴结均有钙化,特别是在结节性实质病例中,这种表现高度提示为肺淀粉样变。
