摘要
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is one of the most common causes of AA amyloidosis. Most patients are asymptomatic and only when there are large deposits in certain organs, functional problems arise. We report two patients with amyloidosis secondary to RA, with renal and intestinal involvement, who responded to treatment with etanercept. (C) 2010 Elsevier Espana, S.L. All rights reserved.
