A 52-year-old female, who was diagnosed primary pulmonary amyloidosis by left open lung biopsy 11 years ago, has been pointed out chest abnormal shadow in the opposite lung for 9 years. Two masses situated in the right S3a and S4 have been growing gradually with suspicion of malignancy. The right open lung biopsy revealed amyloidosis by frozen section and wedge resections were performed. Microscopic findings were compatible with AL type amyloid protein. We reported a rare case of recurrence of localized primary pulmonary amyloidosis.
一名52岁女性,11年前经左肺开放活检确诊为原发性肺淀粉样变性,9年前被指出对侧肺出现胸部异常阴影。位于右肺S3a和S4的两个肿块逐渐增大,怀疑为恶性。右肺开放活检冰冻切片显示为淀粉样变性,并进行了楔形切除术。显微镜检查结果与AL型淀粉样蛋白相符。我们报告了一例罕见的局限性原发性肺淀粉样变性复发病例。
