Résumé
Amyloidosis is a disorder resulting from the deposition of fibrillary protein in the extracellular tissue and can be classified into primary, secondary, familial, and senile types. Isolated lymph node amyloidosis without any other organ involvement is very rarely seen in clinical parlance, and diagnosis remains very challenging owing to nonspecific imaging findings. We present a case of 50-year-old man with lymphadenopathy, which was later confirmed to be amyloidosis on biopsy and serum-free light chain assay with efficacious use of F-FDG PET/CT for response assessment to bortezomib, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone.
