[Local cutaneous amyloidoses. Report of 3 cases with lichen amyloidosus and 2 cases with nodular amyloidosis].
We report on the clinical and histological features of lichen amyloidosus (3 cases) as well as localized nodular amyloidosis (2 cases: a man and a woman). Regarding lichen amyloidosus, our morphological and immunohistochemical findings suggest that amyloid is derived from keratinocytes. In nodular amyloidosis, the origin of amyloid may possibly be connected with plasma cells.
