Microvascular obstruction in cardiac amyloidosis

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is characterized by deposition of amyloid fibrils within the extracellular space, causing disarray of the myocardial structure and capillary architecture. This study aims to characterize the prevalence of microvascular obstruction (MVO) in patients with CA and to assess the association between MVO and prognosis ...
