Organ-limited amyloidosis is a category of amyloidosis where the distribution can be associated primarily with a single organ.
It is contrasted to systemic amyloidosis, and it can be caused by several different types of amyloid.
[1] In almost all of the organ-specific pathologies, there is debate as to whether the amyloid plaques are the causal agent of the disease or instead a downstream consequence of a common idiopathic agent.
