title: Primary amyloidosis of urinary bladder.
abstract: Six cases of primary amyloidosis of the urinary bladder are reported. This is a rare clinical entity and is of interest to the urologist because it is usually confused with carcinoma. Conservative treatment is usually adequate, though long-term follow up is recommended.
