Changes in amyloidosis phenotype over 11 years in a cardiac amyloidosis referral centre cohort in France

CONCLUSIONS: This study shows that increasing cardiologist awareness and referrals have increased CA diagnoses. With improved awareness and non-invasive diagnostic techniques, more patients with ATTRwt with milder disease and more ATTRv Val122Il mutations are being referred and diagnosed. Although more AL cases are being recognised, patients are diagnosed with severe cardiac involvement.PMID:37640624 | DOI:10.1016/j.acvd.2023.07.003
