Association Between Severe Aortic Stenosis and Amyloid Deposition in the Myocardium of Patients With Wild-Type Transthyretin Cardiac Amyloidosis

Key Points

• To explore the relationship between aortic stenosis and myocardial amyloid deposition in patients with wild-type transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis.
• Exploratory study design
• Examined patients with ATTRwt-CA
• Analyzed myocardial amyloid deposition and its relationship with AS
• Identified a frequent occurrence of aortic stenosis in patients with ATTRwt-CA
• Found evidence suggesting a potential link between amyloid deposition and aortic stenosis
