A male patient with nephrotic syndrome, crossed renal ectopia, and extensive Takayasu's arteritis (TA), involving one of the renal arteries, is described. Renal histology showed amyloidosis. After reviewing the literature and considering the finding of raised serum amyloid protein A levels, it was concluded that TA had probably caused the amyloidosis. The crossed renal ectopia must have been a purely coincidental finding.
本文描述了一名患有肾病综合征、交叉异位肾和广泛高安动脉炎（TA）的男性患者，其中一条肾动脉受累。肾脏组织学检查显示为淀粉样变性。在查阅文献并考虑到血清淀粉样蛋白A水平升高这一发现后，得出结论认为TA可能导致了淀粉样变性。交叉异位肾肯定是一个纯粹偶然的发现。
