ABSTRACT
A 75-year-old male visited our hospital with bilateral hilar lymph node swelling detected on chest radiography during an annual medical checkup. Chest computed tomography revealed swelling of multiple hilar mediastinal lymph nodes. Histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) specimens from the hilar lymph nodes revealed amyloid deposition. Bilateral hilar and mediastinal lymphadenopathies can be the first manifestations of amyloidosis diagnosed using EBUS-TBNA.
