Primary cardiac amyloidosis

American Heart Journal, 1953
Abstract Two cases of amyloidosis limited to the heart and one case of amyloidosis involving the heart and lungs are reported. All three patients were men in, or close to, the ninth decade of life. In all three cases auricular fibrillation and congestive failure were present. The literature is reviewed and a distinction drawn between systemic primary

Transthyretin Cardiac Amyloidosis

Current Cardiology Reports, 2017
Transthyretin (TTR)-related cardiac amyloidosis is a progressive infiltrative cardiomyopathy that mimics hypertensive, hypertrophic heart disease and may go undiagnosed. Transthyretin-derived amyloidosis accounts for 18% of all cases of cardiac amyloidosis.

Cardiac amyloidosis at a glance

British Journal of Nursing
Amyloidosis can affect any organ in the body by deposition of amyloid fibrils. When these aggregate in the heart, it leads to cardiac amyloidosis a life-threatening and progressive disease. Although considered a rare condition, advances in imaging techniques and raised awareness have shown that it might be more frequent than has been historically ...

Pathophysiology of Cardiac Amyloidosis

Heart Failure Clinics
Amyloidosis refers to a heterogeneous group of disorders sharing common pathophysiological mechanisms characterized by the extracellular accumulation of fibrillar deposits consisting of the aggregation of misfolded proteins. Cardiac amyloidosis (CA), usually caused by deposition of misfolded transthyretin or immunoglobulin light chains, is an ...

Recenti progressi in medicina, 2009
The described report deals with the case of a patient with diagnosis of ischemic-hypertensive cardiomyiopathy based on the history of angina and inducible myocardial ischemia with normal coronary arteries. However, after cardiac magnetic resonance, the typical amyloidotic pattern is found and the final diagnosis of multiple myeloma is made at ...
