dc.description.abstractRestrictive cardiomyopathy secondary to cardiac amyloidosis is an underdiagnosed cause of heart failure and it is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The most common types of amyloidosis are light chain amyloidosis, transthyretin amyloidosis and secondary amyloidosis. We report the case of a 84-year-old man that presented with new onset signs and symptoms of heart failure. Multimodality imaging with echocardiogram and bone tracer cardiac scintigraphy along with biomarkers, monoclonal proteins analysis and genetic test allowed to diagnosed a wild-type transthyretin amyloidosis. We discuss the clinical and diagnostic features and review the current literature about cardiac amyloidosis. This paper aims to increase clinicians' awareness of cardiac amyloidosis to promptly recognize, diagnose and treat it.pt_PT
