BONE LESION, RIGHT ILIAC, BIOPSY: | |||
- AMYLOID ASSOCIATED WITH HISTOCYTES, GIANT CELLS AND A FEW LYMPHOCYTES | |||
AND PLASMA CELLS. | |||
COMMENT: | |||
The presence of amyloid is confirmed with congo red staining and polarization. | |||
There are no histomorphologic findings suggestive of a plasma cell neoplasm | |||
in this biopsy. | |||
Clinical correlation with serum protein electrophoresis, urine protein electrophoresis | |||
and bone marrow is suggested. | |||
