摘要
We report the case of a 42-year-old woman who presented with Addison's disease with widespread abdomino-pelvic visceral calcifications due to secondary amyloidosis. AA amyloidosis and calcification were supported by histological evidence of liver tissue. To our knowledge, no other case with such extensive visceral calcification involving the adrenals, liver, ovaries, and renal secondary to amyloidosis has been published.
