Primary Amyloidosis a monoclonal plasma cell disorder the accumulation of monoclonal light chain fragments that have undergone a conformational transformation and deposit as amyloid fibrils in different tissues. Organ dysfunction such as heart, kidney, liver, peripheral nervous system are common clinical features Primary Amyloidosis in Korea –No data about epidemiology or clinical characteristics or treatment outcome are available.
Objectives and Methods To describe clinical features and outcome of primary amyloidosis in Korea Diagosed from 1995 to 2010 Multicenter : 6 centers Retrospective chart review

Prognostic Factors
Summary & Conclusion We could described clinical features and outcome of Korean amyloidosis patients. The most common treatment regimen were akylating agent plus dexamethasone or predinisolone. Hematologic response, organ response, cardiac involvement, hepatic involvement, number of organ involvement, extent of BM plamacytosis, stem cell transplantation, NYHA functional grade, ECOG performance status, NT-proBNP were significant for overall survival in univariate analysis, and Hematologic response and ECOG performance status were significant prognostic in multivariate analysis.
