    abstract = {Amyloidosis represents a heterogenous group
of diseases that have in common the deposition of fibrils
composed of proteins of beta-pleated sheet structure, a
structure which can be specifically identified by
histochemistry using the Congo red (CR) or similar stains.
Between October 2013 to April 2014 (6 months) different
patterns of renal amyloidosis was diagnosed on
histpathological examination of kidneys belong to 196 out
of 7065 slaughtered sheep subjected to postmortem
examination. Microscopic examination of renal tissue
sections stained with Hematoxylin-Eosin (H&E) and CR
staining techniques, revealed 3 patterns of renal amyloid
deposition including glomerular (22.72%), medullary
(68.18%) and vascular (9.09%). Renal Medullary
Amyloidosis (RMA) was detected as the most prevalence
pattern of renal amyloidosis in domestic sheep in Iran.}
