An interesting case of cardiac amyloidosis initially diagnosed as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Cardiac involvement occurs frequently in primary amyloidosis and is associated with heart failure hospitalizations and poor survival. The initial presentation of the disease may be misleading, resulting in under-diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis and late initiation of treatment. We present a case of cardiac amyloidosis initially misdiagnosed as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and we discuss the key findings of the disease along with the latest evidence regarding the management and prognosis of cardiac amyloidosis.
