Abstrakt: Amyloidosis as a complication of patients afflicted with multiple myeloma only arose in 15% of the cases. The articular localization is particularly rare, the clinical findings being similar to rheumatoid arthritis. A case of amyloid arthritis associated to Bence-Jones myeloma, kappa type, is presented and the literature is reviewed.
