Multicenter Study Comparative StudyEnd-stage renal failure due to amyloidosis: outcomes in 490 ANZDATA registry cases.
There are few reports regarding the long-term renal replacement therapy (RRT) outcomes of amyloidosis. ⋯ Amyloidosis was associated with poor patient survival following dialysis and/or renal transplantation, poor renal allograft survival and a significant incidence of disease recurrence in the allograft. An appreciable proportion of amyloid ESRF patients died of amyloidosis-related complications.
