Case report regarding the evolution of electrocardiographic and echocardiographic features in cardiac amyloidosis

摘要

Cardiac amyloidosis is an important cause for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. It is often under diagnosed due to the fact that clinicians do not always recognize the specific diagnostic findings associated with this disease, also leading to the wrong diagnosis. When left untreated further irreversible organ dysfunction occurs, with high morbidity and mortality rates.
