Abstract:
We present a patient with dialysis-related amyloidosis of the external auditory canals. This diagnosis was supported by histological and immunohistochemical studies. This is to the best of our knowledge the first reported case of amyloidosis of the external auditory canals that relate to the chronic hemodialysis.
