Se clasifican según la proteína fibrilar involucrada y, de acuerdo a su distribución, en localizada o sistémica.Presentamos una paciente con amiloidosis sistémica asociada a mieloma múltiple con compromiso esofágico y cutáneo. El interés de la presentación radica en la importancia del reconocimiento de las lesiones cutáneas características, para realizar diagnóstico precoz de esta patología.
