A Case of Wild-Type Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy
Abstract：Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) is an infiltrative restrictive cardiomyopathy caused by the deposition of insoluble amyloid fibrils formed by transthyretin (TTR) in the myocardial interstitium. It is a rare and fatal disease, divided into two types: ① wild-type associated with aging; ② mutant type caused by specific mutant genes in the body. Due to the lack of comprehensive understanding of the disease and the absence of specific clinical manifestations, patients often suffer from misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis, leading to poor prognosis. Therefore, early recognition and diagnosis are particularly important. This article reports one case of wild-type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy, aiming to provide reference for clinical treatment.
