At present, development of this syndrome is one of the few complications in these patients. The factors involved in the genesis of this syndrome are not yet known with certainty and there is as yet no proven efficacious treatment other than renal transplantation. As a result, the interest in this topic among nephrologists remains very high. This book respond to this interest by providing general information on the pathophysiology and clinical aspects of all types of amyloidosis. The recently discovered B2 type of dialysis amyloidosis, a serious complication which affects patients suffering from chronic renal failure,is fully covered from the clinical and pathological features to the physiological and pathophysiological aspects. This book will give nephrologists and rheumatologists a clear understanding of the dialysis amyloidosis syndrome as well as making a valuable contribution to identifying strategies for treatment and prevention.
