Overview

Amyloid is an abnormal insoluble extracellular protein that deposits in the different tissues and causes organic dysfunction and a wide variety of clinical syndromes. In systemic amyloidosis, amyloid gradually accumulate and amyloid deposition is widespread in the viscera, blood vessel walls, and in the different connective tissues. Secondary amyloidosis is associated with chronic inflammation (such as tuberculosis or rheumatoid arthritis).

Pathophysiology

  • Amyloid is an abnormal insoluble extracellular protein that deposits in the different tissues and causes organic dysfunction and a wide variety of clinical syndromes.[1]
  • These abnormal amyloids are derived from misfolding and aggregation of normally soluble proteins.
  • Amyloid deposition can disrupt tissue structure of involved organ and consequently leads to organ failure.[2]

Secondary Amyloidosis (AA)

Associated Conditions

Gross Pathology

On gross pathology, the organs affected by amyloidosis can be characterized by the following features:

  • Porcelain like or waxy appearance
  • Enlargement

Images

Nodular deposits of amyloid on the pleural surfaces.[7]
Cut section of an inguinal lymph node showing firm and waxy consistency.[8]
A slice of the affected node (left) has turned black after treatment with Lugol's solution. A piece of normal myometrium (right) treated similarly with no reaction is also shown.[9]


Microscopic Pathology

On microscopic histopathological analysis, amyloidosis is characterized by:[3][10]

  • Green birefringence under polarized light after Congo red staining (appears red under normal light)
  • Linear non-branching fibrils (indefinite length with an approximately same diameter)
  • Distinct X-ray diffraction pattern consistent with Pauling's model of a cross-beta fibril
