Overview
The clinical features of wild-type (senile) amyloidosis depend on the type of organ or organ system involved. Cardiac and peripheral nerves involvement can result in clinically evident pathology. The most commonly involved organ is the heart and majority of the patients present with signs and symptoms of heart failure. Less common symptoms correspond to the involvement of organs or organ systems other than the heart.
History and Symptoms
History
- The clinical features of wild-type (senile) amyloidosis depend on the type of organ or organ system involved.
- Wild-type (senile) amyloidosis, classified as systemic amyloidosis, can involve any organ in the body.
- Cardiac and peripheral nerves involvement can result in clinically evident pathology.[1]
- The most commonly involved organ is the heart and majority of the patients present with signs and symptoms of heart failure.[2]
Common Symptoms
- Patients suffering from heart failure secondary to wild-type (senile) amyloidosis can present with:[2]
- Arrhythmias with associated symptoms, such as palpitations
- Syncope and presyncope
- Syncope on exertion is an ominous sign of cardiac amyloidosis, as these patients cannot augment their cardiac output due to poor filling of the ventricle (restrictive cardiomyopathy).[4]
- Postural hypotension may be observed in patients with subendothelial amyloid deposition.[5]
- Chest pain or chest discomfort [6][7]
- Non-specific symptoms such as:
Less Common Symptoms
- Less common symptoms correspond to the involvement of organs or organ systems other than the heart. These can include:
- Pain and tingling in the hands (resulting from carpal tunnel syndrome)[8]
- Blood in urine (resulting from urological lesions)
- Pain and tingling in the limbs (resulting from spinal stenosis)
