| Abstract: | Three African patients with the nephrotic syndrome due to renal amyloidosis are discussed. Together they exemplify the two major categories of amyloidosis: the first patient developed reactive systemic amyloidosis as a complication of chronic tissue necrosis associated with trophic ulceration in tuberculoid leprosy; the second and third patients represent cases of amyloidosis associated with immunocyte dyscrasia.(AU).
