[Renal AA amyloidosis secondary to bronchiectasis: a report of two cases (including one with Mounier-Kuhn syndrome)]. / Amylose rénale AA secondaire à des bronchectasies.

INTRODUCTION: We describe 2 patients with AA renal amyloidosis secondary to bronchiectasis (one patient had tracheobronchomegaly or Mounier-Kuhn syndrome). CASE REPORTS: The time period between the diagnosis of bronchiectasis and the development of renal amyloidosis was 40 years and 30 years respectively. Both patients evolved to end-stage renal failure requiring dialysis. CONCLUSION: Although the incidence of renal amyloidosis secondary to bronchectasis has declined, it remains a dreadful complication.
