Abstract
We report a case of amyloidosis in association with hyperimmunoglobulinemia D syndrome (HIDS). The patient showed typical clinical features of HIDS. He had crescentic glomerulonephritis progressing to end-stage renal disease at age 13 years. Eight years later, he developed an AA-type amyloidosis with extensive involvement of the intestine, respiratory tract, and thyroid gland. These unusual complications of HIDS seriously challenge the assumption that the disease is associated with a good prognosis.
