Amyloid in the bladder is usually Localized Amyloidosis and will never travel to other places in the body. It is treated as needed, usually with with lasers to debulk the amyloid buildup. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11126834/ I know at least one patient who had amyloid build up in the ureters, between the kidneys and bladder. He had stents put in to keep urine flowing around the amyloid deposits.
