原发性下尿路淀粉样变性是一种罕见的疾病，通常局限于单个部位。其临床特征、膀胱镜和放射学表现与肿瘤性或炎症性病变难以区分。我们报告一例罕见的淀粉样变性，累及下尿路的多个部位(前列腺间质、三角区和输尿管下段)。还描述了膀胱淀粉样变性的MRI表现，可以用来怀疑这种情况。
Primary amyloidosis of lower urinary tract is a rare entity and is usually localized to a single site. Its clinical features, and cystoscopic and radiological findings are indistinguishable from neoplastic or inflammatory lesions. We report an unusual case of amyloidosis involving multiple sites (prostatic stroma, trigone and lower ureters) in the lower urinary tract. MRI findings of bladder amyloid, which could be used to suspect this condition, are also described.
