Cardiac Amyloidosis: Clinical Features, Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Treatment [PDF]

Türk Patoloji Dergisi
Cardiac amyloidosis is a type of amyloidosis that deserves special attention as organ involvement significantly worsens the prognosis. Cardiac amyloidosis can be grouped under three main headings: immunoglobulin light chain (AL) amyloidosis that is ...

Prevalence of transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis in undifferentiated heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1176-1182, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR‐CM) is an increasinglyrecognized cause of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), which may be diagnosed non‐invasively using 99mTc 3,3‐diphosphono‐1,2‐propanodicarboxylic acid (DPD) scintigraphy‐based diagnostic criteria.

A phenomap of TTR amyloidosis to aid diagnostic screening

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1113-1118, April 2025.
Abstract Cardiac amyloidosis due to transthyretin (ATTR) remains an underdiagnosed cause of cardiomyopathy. As awareness of the disease grows and referrals for ATTR increase, clinicians are likely to encounter more atypical forms of the condition in clinical practice.

Extensive amyloid deposits in bone marrow aspirate smears

Clinical Case Reports, 2020
Amyloid light‐chain (AL) amyloidosis is the most common form of systemic amyloidosis. It can cause progressive organ dysfunction and eventually death, mainly due to cardiac involvement. Amyloidosis may rarely present as extensive amorphous, purplish‐blue

Skeletal Myopathy as the Initial Manifestation of Light Chain Multiple Myeloma

European Journal of Case Reports in Internal Medicine, 2020
Monoclonal gammopathies due to plasma cell dyscrasias can cause various rare neuromuscular disorders. The peripheral nervous system is most commonly affected, while muscle diseases associated with monoclonal gammopathies are rare. Skeletal myopathy, as a

Light-Chain (AL) Amyloidosis [PDF]

Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2006
Light-chain (AL) amyloidosis is the most common form of systemic amyloidosis and is associated with an underlying plasma cell dyscrasia. The disease often is difficult to recognize because of its broad range of manifestations and what often are vague symptoms.

Hereditary systemic immunoglobulin light-chain amyloidosis

, 2015
Several members of a family died from renal failure as a result of systemic amyloidosis. Extensive studies to detect previously documented gene mutations associated with amyloidosis failed to identify a causative factor.

Exercise limitations in amyloid cardiomyopathy assessed by cardiopulmonary exercise testing—A multicentre study

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1326-1335, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Amyloid cardiomyopathy is caused by the deposition of light chain (AL) or transthyretin amyloid (ATTR) fibrils, that leads to a restrictive cardiomyopathy, often resulting in heart failure (HF) with preserved or reduced ejection fraction.

Diagnosing Smoldering Multiple Myeloma and Light Chain Amyloidosis in the Setting of Severe Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy and Extracardiac Sarcoidosis

Annals of Internal Medicine: Clinical Cases
Light chain (AL) amyloidosis involves deposition of monoclonal immunoglobulin light chain-derived amyloid fibrils, whereas ATTR amyloidosis involves deposition of insoluble antiparallel beta-pleated protein within tissues, leading to organ-specific ...
