Nodular cutaneous amyloidosis (NCA), the least common form of primary cutaneous amyloidosis, is characterized clinically by waxy, purpuric plaques and nodules and histologically by amyloid deposits in the dermis and subcutaneous tissue. We present a patient who developed multiple, non-contiguous NCA lesions over a three year period without evidence of systemic disease. We reviewed the literature and found few other cases of this unusual presentation.
结节性皮肤淀粉样变性（NCA）是原发性皮肤淀粉样变性最不常见的形式，临床特征为蜡样、紫癜性斑块和结节，组织学特征为真皮和皮下组织中有淀粉样沉积物。我们报告了一名患者，在三年时间里出现了多个不连续的NCA病变，且无全身疾病证据。我们查阅了文献，发现这种不寻常表现的其他病例很少。
