The gut may be involved in the primaiy (AL) amyloi­dosis1. It is associated with dysmotility and malabsorption2. Endoscopic examination of these cases reveals fine granular appearance of mucosa, polypoid protrusions, erosions, ulcera­tions and mucosal friability3. We present here a case of primary amyloidosis of gut who presented with dysphagia.
