Popis: A 35-year-old man who had been treated by hemodialysis for 15 years suffered from systemic amyloidosis. It was identified as a beta 2-microglobulin type according to immunohistochemistry. Extensive amyloid deposits were found in myocardium, cartilages of intervertebral discs and in carpal tunnel ligament. Less conspicuous deposits comprised blood vessels of lungs, liver, suprarenal glands, brain, and stroma of prostate gland, testicles, kidney, often combined with calcified foci.
