Overview
Historical Perspective
- In 1639, Nicolaus Fontanus autopsied a young man who had ascites, jaundice, liver abscess and splenomegaly and his report has been the first description of amyloidosis.[1]
- In 1854, Rudolph Virchow introduced the term of amyloid as an macroscopic abnormality in some tissues.[2]
- In 1867, Weber reported the first case of amyloidosis associated with multiple myeloma.[3]
- In 1922, Bennhold introduced Congo red staining of amyloid that remains the gold standard for diagnosis.[4]
- In 1959, Cohen and Calkins used ultrathin sections of amyloidotic tissues and assessed by electron microscopic examination, explained the presence of nonbranching fibrils with indeterminate length and variable width.[2][5]
