Study of the presence of amyloid deposits on subcutaneous fat aspirates was carried out in 100 patients hospitalized in a geriatric unit. The test was positive in 15%, and in 4% of them, amyloid deposits were also seen on accessory salivary glands, confirmed by immunohistochemical staining. These results indicate that sub-cutaneous fat aspirate may be a useful test for an early diagnosis of amyloidosis.
对100名老年病房住院患者的皮下脂肪抽吸物进行了淀粉样沉积物检测。检测结果显示，15%的患者呈阳性，其中4%的患者在副唾液腺中也发现了淀粉样沉积物，免疫组化染色证实了这一点。这些结果表明，皮下脂肪抽吸物检测可能是早期诊断淀粉样变性的一种有用方法。
