Clinical and genetic features of hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis with polyneuropathy in China: insights from case analysis and literature review
This study expands the clinical and genetic landscape of ATTRv-PN in China and highlighted the heterogeneity of amyloid detection in nerve biopsies. Accurate and timely diagnosis requires an integrated approach combining clinical, electrophysiological, pathological, genetic, and multimodal imaging assessments to facilitate early initiation of disease-modifying therapies.
