    This study reports a case of secondary amyloidosis affecting the bladder in a woman with rheumatoid arthritis. Treatment with DMSO and colchicine successfully resolved severe hematuria.

    Area of Science:

    • Rheumatology
    • Nephrology
    • Urology

    Background:

    • Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic autoimmune disease that can lead to systemic complications.
    • Secondary amyloidosis, often associated with chronic inflammatory conditions, can affect various organs, including the urinary tract.

    Observation:

    • A female patient with rheumatoid arthritis presented with symptoms suggestive of bladder involvement.
    • Clinical, histochemical, and examination of other affected sites were consistent with secondary amyloidosis.

    Findings:

    • The patient underwent transurethral resection (T.U.R.) for vesical amyloidosis.
    • Post-operative treatment with Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and colchicine led to the complete resolution of severe hematuria.

    Implications:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • This case highlights the potential for bladder amyloidosis as a manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis-associated secondary amyloidosis.
    • The combination of T.U.R., DMSO, and colchicine may represent an effective treatment strategy for vesical amyloidosis.
    • Further research is warranted to explore the efficacy and mechanisms of DMSO and colchicine in managing amyloidosis.
