ABSTRACT
<p>An 81-year-old man was referred to our hospital with bilateral multiple patchy opacities on chest radiography. His chief complaints were a few months’ history of intermittent mild cough and slightly yellow sputum. Chest computed tomography (CT) showed non-segmental air-space consolidations with ground-glass opacities. Amyloid deposition with organizing pneumonia (OP) was seen in transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) specimens from the left S8. Three months later, the infiltration originally seen in the left lower lobe was remarkably diminished, and new infiltrations in the lingual and right lower lobes were detected on chest CT. Amyloid deposition with OP was seen in TBLB specimens from the left S4. Transthyretin was detected following immunohistochemical examination. The presence of wild-type transthyretin (ATTRwt) was proven using genetic analysis. The present report describes a rare case of ATTRwt amyloidosis associated with OP.</p>
