We report the computed tomography findings of five patients with pathology proven pulmonary amyloidosis. Tracheobronchial amyloidosis with calcified nodules and plaques in the tracheal wall were seen in two patients. Two other patients had diffuse parenchymal disease with calcified lesions, one had reticular and nodular subpleural opacities whereas the other had nodular interlobular septal thickening and a parenchymal consolidation. The latter presented the nodular type of the disease with multiple sharp nodules scattered throughout the lungs and interspersed calcifications. The computed tomography findings observed were not specific but strongly suggestive of amyloidosis.
