[Primary localized amiloidosis with recurrent relapse: a case report].

This is a case report of primary localized amyloidosis of the urinary bladder. The patient was a 73-year-old woman who had relapse of this disease three times. Primary localized amyloidosis of the urinary bladder is an especially rare disease and the prognosis is excellent in most cases. We performed transurethral resection of the bladder tumor (TUR-Bt) each time and we are following up this patient carefully. After the last TUR-Bt, she has had no recurrence for 7 months. Considering multifocal recurrence and excellent prognosis, we stress the importance of TUR-Bt for diagnosis and careful follow up.
