Area of Science:

  • Pulmonology
  • Pathology
  • Medical Case Reports

Background:

  • Localized pulmonary amyloidosis is an uncommon condition.
  • Tracheobronchial involvement is the most frequent presentation of pulmonary amyloidosis.

Observation:

  • A 68-year-old man presented with cough and dyspnea.
  • Bronchoscopy revealed submucosal infiltration and stenosis in the left upper and lower bronchi.

Findings:

  • Multiple biopsies confirmed amyloidosis of the AL type.
  • The study aims to detail the anatomopathologic features of this localized pulmonary form.

Implications:

  • This case contributes to the understanding of rare pulmonary diseases.
  • Further research into the pathogeny of localized pulmonary amyloidosis is warranted.
