A Case of Cholestatic Liver Involvement Secondary to Amyloid Light Chain Amyloidosis With New-Onset Hypercholesterolemia and Elevated Gamma-Glutamyltransferase Level
Amyloid light chain (AL) amyloidosis is a rare disorder caused by the deposit of misfolded light chain proteins. AL amyloidosis causes multiple organ involvement and rarely causes fatal liver failure. We present a 68-year-old man who showed cholestatic liver injury and was diagnosed with AL amyloido...
