Abdominal fat tissue aspirates from 20 patients with biopsy-proved amyloidosis were investigated by polarized microscopy after staining with Congo-red. Positive results were obtained in 4 of 5 patients with primary amyloidosis (AL) and in none of 15 with amyloidosis (AA) of Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF). We suggest that although this technique is simple, safe and effective in other forms of amyloidosis, it cannot be used as a diagnostic tool in FMF patients suffering from amyloidosis.
对20例经活检证实为淀粉样变性的患者的腹部脂肪组织吸出物，在用刚果红染色后通过偏光显微镜进行研究。5例原发性淀粉样变性（AL）患者中有4例得到阳性结果，而15例家族性地中海热（FMF）淀粉样变性（AA）患者均未得到阳性结果。我们认为，尽管该技术在其他形式的淀粉样变性中简单、安全且有效，但它不能用作患有淀粉样变性的FMF患者的诊断工具。
