The classification of amyloid and amyloidosis has undergone several revisions. The 1990 revision of the nomenclature at the 6th Internal Symposium on Amyloidosis in Oslo has been widely accepted and the basis for nomenclature and classification is the fibril protein making up the amyloid deposits. The liver is a major site of amyloid deposition in the disseminated form of the disease. Many studies have shown that the morphologic distribution of amyloid within the liver is not a reliable method for distinguishing AA from AL amyloidosis.
淀粉样蛋白及淀粉样变性的分类已经历了数次修订。1990年在奥斯陆召开的第六届淀粉样变性国际研讨会上对命名法进行的修订已被广泛接受，命名和分类的依据是构成淀粉样沉积物的纤维蛋白。在该疾病的播散型中，肝脏是淀粉样蛋白沉积的主要部位。许多研究表明，肝脏内淀粉样蛋白的形态分布并非区分AA型与AL型淀粉样变性的可靠方法。
