title: [Pseudotumoral lambda chain pulmonary amyloidosis].
abstract: A case is described of primary multi-nodular pulmonary amyloidosis which was "pseudotumoral" and its progress had been under observation for eight years. Protein analysis revealed that it was a monoclonal light chain and there was no evidence of myeloma. It appears to be of a local pathology and is of the same type as amyloid tumors of the bronchi.
