Abstract
- Primary localized amyloidosis is a rare disease. A 75-year-old woman with a history of intermittent right-sided renal colic and hematuria had a stricture of lower ureter which was suspected to be caused by tumor or fibrosis. Intraoperative frozen biopsy of the ureter showed no evidence of malignancy. So we report a case of primary amyloidosis of the ureter which was treated successfully with segmental resection and end to end anastomosis.
