ABSTRACT
Amyloidosis is a rare disease which is characterized by the deposition of a histochemically specific substance called amyloid in many tissue bodies, and causes various symptoms according to the organs involved. Amyloid is usually recognized by its staining reaction with Congo red stain. Primary pulmonary amyloidosis is very rare. Nodular pulmonary amyloidosis is an uncommon entity that usually manifests itself as an asymptomatic incidental finding on the chest roentgenogram and is misdiagnosed as lung cancer or pulmonary tuberculosis.
