摘要
We present a case of subcutaneous nodular amyloidosis mimicking a pilar cyst. Further evaluation led to the diagnosis of malignant systemic light-chain amyloidosis. The epidemiology and histopathological features of light-chain amyloidosis with cutaneous involvement are reviewed, as well as current recommendations for initial evaluation.
