Abstract

Amyloidosis is a rare heterogeneous group of systemic disorders, which result due to extra cellular deposition of an insoluble, amorphous, eosinophilic, substance known as amyloid. The disease is often characterized by a restrictive cardiomyopathy with a poor prognosis and survival. The treatment of cardiac amyloidosis depends on the underlying etiology. However, the diagnosis of the type of cardiac amyloidosis is not always straightforward. We present here a case of cardiac amyloidosis and we discuss the different forms.
