Most commonly amyloidoisis is secondary to -: (A) Chronic suppuration, (B) Acute inflammation, (C) Cellular necrosis, (D) Hyaline degeneration
Answer is A. Amyloidosis has not been included in the wide spectrum of medical complications associated with drug abuse. Chronic visceral infection is a recognized cause of amyloidosis, but chronic suppuration of the skin is not a well-appreciated cause of this condition. Fuhermore, to our knowledge, chronic skin suppuration secondary to parenteral drug abuse has not been repoed as a cause for systemic amyloidosis. https:/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov.in
