Overview
If left untreated, renal amyoidosis may progress into end stage renal disease. Common complications include chronic renal failure and nephrotic syndrome. After a few years, renal amyloidosis eventually leads to end stage renal disease and it may be accelerated by some factors such as steroid administration, renal vein thrombos, iInfections and surgery.
Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis
Natural History
- If renal amyloidosis left untreated it usually manifests as nephrotic range proteinuria and then progresses to acute kidney injury and then end stage renal disease.[1]

- ESRD
- Systemic organ involvement
