Catastrophic Cardiac Amyloidosis [PDF]
We report a case of a 61-year-old patient presenting with cardiogenic shock. His echocardiogram suggested typical features of cardiac amyloidosis. This case demonstrates that cardiac amyloidosis can present acutely and may be catastrophic.

Technetium-99m pyrophosphate cardiac SPECT in endomyocardial biopsy negative cardiac amyloidosis
Cardiac amyloidosis is an under-appreciated cause of heart failure. Establishing a diagnosis is important because traditional heart failure treatment regimens can worsen left ventricular failure in this disease. Endomyocardial biopsy is the gold standard

Dataset on the use of 3D speckle tracking echocardiography in light-chain amyloidosis [PDF]
The dataset presented in this article is related to the research article entitled “Biventricular assessment of light-chain amyloidosis using 3D speckle tracking echocardiography: Differentiation from other forms of myocardial hypertrophy” (Vitarelli et ...

Pathophysiology and Therapeutic Approaches to Cardiac Amyloidosis.
Often considered a rare disease, cardiac amyloidosis is increasingly recognized by practicing clinicians. The increased rate of diagnosis is in part due the aging of the population and increasing incidence and prevalence of cardiac amyloidosis with ...

Extracardiac 18F-florbetapir imaging in patients with systemic amyloidosis: more than hearts and minds [PDF]
PURPOSE: 18F-Florbetapir has been reported to show cardiac uptake in patients with systemic light-chain amyloidosis (AL). This study systematically assessed uptake of 18F-florbetapir in patients with proven systemic amyloidosis at sites outside the heart.

Re-Definition of the Epidemiology of Cardiac Amyloidosis
The epidemiology of cardiac amyloidosis (CA), traditionally considered a rare and incurable disease, has changed drastically over the last ten years, particularly due to the advances in diagnostic methods and therapeutic options in the field of ...

The frequency of cardiac involvement varies among other types of amyloidosis. Cardiac amyloidosis leads to systolic and diastolic dysfunction with symptoms of heart failure. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) findings are helpful in supporting the diagnosis of amyloid cardiomyopathy.

Aims As evidenced by scintigraphy imaging, the prevalence of transthyretin (TTR) cardiac amyloidosis in heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) ranges between 13% and 19%.
