Cardiac amyloidosis is a progressive disorder and is sometimes difficult to diagnose even when suspected in the appropriate clinical setting. We present an interesting case of rapidly progressive light-chain cardiac amyloidosis and highlights the importance of close monitoring even when the initial biopsy and imaging findings are not pathognomonic for ...

Non‐cardiac biopsy sites with high frequency of transthyretin amyloidosis
Aims Cardiac scintigraphy, a non‐invasive technique for diagnosing ATTR cardiac amyloidosis, lacks specificity in patients with concomitant monoclonal gammopathy (up to 40% of cases).

A thousand words about the imaging in cardiac amyloidosis
Cardiac amyloidosis is an infiltrative disease which usually occurs under the form of restrictive cardiomyopathy. Advances in the treatment have changed the unfavorable outcomes of this disease. Thus, early diagnosis is essential.

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) comprises half of the heart failure population. A specific, but underdiagnosed, cause for HFpEF is transthyretin-derived (ATTR) amyloidosis.

[Cardiac arrhythmias and amyloidosis].
Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is a form of cardiomyopathy characterized by the extracellular deposit of protein fibers in the myocardium, leading to the development of heart failure, arrhythmias, and electrical conduction system alterations. It is known that most cardiomyopathies have a close relationship with heart rhythm abnormalities, however, CA is ...
