Abstract
An unusual case of localized amyloidosis of the ureter is described and a review of the 12 previously reported cases is presented. No case was diagnosed prior to surgery. Loin pain, with or without hematuria, associated with a sterile pyuria and an abnormal pyelogram were the commonest clinical signs. In the case reported an incidental small renal cell carcinoma was also present and the association of amyloidosis and neoplasia was discussed.
