A Comprehensive Review of Cardiac Amyloidosis

Payal Patel

Cardiac amyloidosis is a rare but serious disorder characterized by the abnormal deposition of amyloid protein fibrils in the heart tissue. Amyloidosis refers to a group of diseases in which abnormal protein aggregates accumulate in various organs, disrupting their normal function. In cardiac amyloidosis, the heart muscle becomes infiltrated with amyloid deposits, leading to impaired cardiac function and potentially life-threatening complications.
