Amyloidosis
MONDO:0019065A disorder characterized by the localized or diffuse accumulation of amyloid protein in various anatomic sites. It may be primary, due to clonal plasma cell proliferations; secondary, due to long standing infections, chronic inflammatory disorders, or malignancies; or familial. It may affect the nerves, skin, tongue, joints, heart, liver, spleen, kidneys and adrenal glands.
Also known as: amyloid, amyloid disease, amyloidoses, amyloidosis, amyloidosis (disease)
