Immunoglobulin Light Chain Amyloidosis with Severe Liver Dysfunction Accompanied by Factor X Deficiency

: Severe hepatic failure is rarely a cause of death in patients with immunoglobulin light chain (AL) amyloidosis. We herein report a case of AL amyloidosis involving a bleeding tendency due to factor X deficiency and marked hepatic involvement of amyloidosis. The patient died due to severe liver dysfunction two weeks after admission. The diagnosis was confirmed histologically by AL-λ amyloidosis, with the liver and spleen as the main lesions, on an autopsy. As treatment-related toxicity is strong in advanced cases, appropriate treatments are required to improve the prognosis of AL amyloidosis with severe liver dysfunction.
