Genetic and Clinical Spectrum of Hereditary Transthyretin Amyloidosis in Brazil
ABSTRACT Background Transthyretin hereditary amyloidosis (ATTRv) clinical variability has been widely reported, not only across countries and variants but also among families and distinct regions within a single nation. One of the principal challenges in disease management is the accurate determination of age of onset (AOO), which is heterogeneous and ...

Initial experience with transcatheter tricuspid valve repair in patients with cardiac amyloidosis
Aims Wildtype transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy is an under‐recognized cause of heart failure in elderly patients. Transcatheter tricuspid valve repair is a newly emerging therapeutic option for severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR).
