Abstract
Cardiac involvement represents a critical prognostic factor in amyloidosis, as it represents a leading cause of morbidity and mortality, in primary light chain amyloidosis, in hereditary and also in wild-type transthyretin amyloidosis. A 54-year-old male was admitted to Emergency Room with complaints of dyspnea, palpitations and diaphoresis.
