Cardiac amyloidosis in a kidney transplant recipient [PDF]
Systemic amyloidosis is a collection of diseases caused by the deposition of protein fibrils in organ tissues, leading to significant morbidity. Cardiac amyloidosis, a rare and debilitating condition, can affect any organ in the body.

Systemic Amyloidosis – Insights by Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance [PDF]
Systemic amyloidosis is the exemplar infiltrative, extracellular disease. Although it is a multi-organ disorder, cardiac involvement drives prognosis. Survival is worst in the AL amyloidosis subtype. It can affect any age and any race. There is no direct

Abstract Aims This study aimed to evaluate the change of the main electrocardiographic (ECG) characteristics and their prognostic role across the main subtypes of cardiac amyloidosis [light‐chain amyloidosis (AL) and hereditary (ATTRv) and wild‐type transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRwt)].

Misdiagnosis of hereditary amyloidosis as AL (Primary) amyloidosis [PDF]
Background: Hereditary, autosomal dominant amyloidosis, caused by mutations in the genes encoding transthyretin, fibrinogen A -chain, lysozyme, or apolipoprotein A-I, is thought to be extremely rare and is not routinely included in the differential ...

Heart transplantation in cardiac amyloidosis
It is known that the prognosis of patients affected by light-chain (AL) or transthyretin-related (TTR) amyloidosis is poor. TTR amyloidosis has usually shown a slower progression than AL amyloidosis, both hereditary TTR amyloidosis, where there is an ...
