BACKGROUND: Morphologic findings of amyloid in urine cytology material have rarely been reported because
amyloidosis of the urinary tract is a relatively uncommon disorder. We present a case of primary amyloidosis of the
ureter, including catheterized urine cytologicfindings. CASE: A 78-year-old man had pollakiuria and dysuria for 5
years before admission after transurethral resection of the prostate. Clinical examination revealed left hydronephrosis
and stricture of the lower part of the left ureter, and a malignant ureteral tumor was suspected clinically. In
catheterized urine cytology, many clusters of epithelial cells, inflammatory cells and abundant, amorphous, waxy
material were observed. The amorphous material stained light green by the Papanicolaou method and positive with
direct fast scarlet (DFS), showing yellow-green birefringence under polarized light. Positivity with DFS staining was
not affected by treatment with potassium permanganate. Immunocytochemically the material was AL-type amyloid
protein. Atypia were absent from epithelial cells. The patient had no history of diseases that could cause secondary
amyloidosis. The present case was considered to be primary amyloidosis localized to the left ureter because no
particular morphologic change in the epithelial cells of the urinary tract was observed. CONCLUSION: Amyloid can
be present in urine and should not be overlooked or confused with tumor diathesis when a malignant tumor is
suspected clinically.
