[Osteoarticular amyloidosis and dysglobulinemia: apropos of 2 cases].
We report two cases of bone and joint amyloidosis involvement related to plasma cell dyscrasia. The radiographic appearances mimic numerous benign or malignant diseases. MR imaging shows a diffuse low signal in T1 and an heterogeneous low or mild low signal in T2 weighted spin-echo sequence.
