  • Amyloidosis is a condition where misfolded proteins deposit in the body, notably affecting the skin of individuals from the Asian subcontinent, leading to a subtype known as Primary Cutaneous Amyloidosis (PCA).
  • This study focuses on identifying and confirming the dermoscopic features of two types of PCA—Macular Amyloidosis (MA) and Papular Amyloidosis (PA)—in 42 patients, primarily of skin color from a government hospital in Southeast Asia.
