Objective: to assess the nature of morphological and sonographic changes in the iliac-lumbar ligament, posterior long sacroiliac ligament, and sacroiliac ligament in amyloidosis. Material of research . Sectional data of a subject with secondary amyloidosis. Results. We have revealed some dystrophic changes in the iliac-lumbar, posterior long sacroiliac ligament, and sacro-ligamentous ligaments, the severity of which was significantly higher than the average values characteristic of that age period. Conclusion. Secondary amyloidosis is a pathological state that significantly affects the severity of dystrophic changes in ligaments and, accordingly, the character of the sonographic pattern.
