Amyloid is available online at: http://informahealthcare.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/13506120903090940, We report a patient with AH amyloidosis associated with lymphoplasmacytic leukemia that has remained in a stable state with a nephrotic syndrome for 17 months since the commencement of cyclic rituximab therapy aimed at suppression of pathogenetic gamma heavy chains. Free light chains in serum and CD20-positive cells in peripheral blood were useful as hematological markers in the patient. Rituximab might be a potent therapeutic option for AH amyloidosis associated with a B-cell lymphoproliferative disorder., Article, AMYLOID. 16(3):178-180 (2009)}, pages = {178--180}, title = {Rituximab therapy in nephrotic syndrome due to AH amyloidosis}, volume = {16}, year = {2009} }
