Association Between Severe Aortic Stenosis and Amyloid Deposition in the Myocardium of Patients With Wild-Type Transthyretin Cardiac Amyloidosis
Background: Although wild-type transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTRwt-CA) is frequently observed in older patients with aortic stenosis (AS), its relationship with AS is unclear. Therefore, this exploratory study aimed to investigate the relationship between myocardial amyloid deposition and AS in patients with ATTRwt-CA.
