Amyloidosis is a benign, non-neoplastic disease characterized by the deposition of extracellular fibrillar protein in tissues or organs, which may be systemic or localized. Primary amyloidosis localized in the bladder is very rare in the literature and may mimic bladder cancer at presentation. A 31-year-old female patient consulted to our clinic and was diagnosed with primary bladder amyloidosis; intravesical dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) therapy was started. To the best of our knowledge, this patient represents the fourth case in the Turkish medical literature.
淀粉样变性是一种良性非肿瘤性疾病,其特征是细胞外纤维状蛋白在组织或器官中沉积,可分为全身性或局限性。原发性膀胱淀粉样变性在文献中非常罕见,在临床表现上可能类似膀胱癌。一名31岁女性患者前来我院就诊,被诊断为原发性膀胱淀粉样变性;开始膀胱内二甲基亚砜(DMSO)治疗。据我们所知,该患者是土耳其医学文献中的第四例。
