Familial Amyloid Polyneuropathy Type IV (FINNISH) with Rapid Clinical Progression in an Iranian Woman: A Case Report
Familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP) type IV (FINNISH) is a rare clinical entity with challenging neuropathy and cosmetic deficits. Amyloidosis can affect peripheral sensory, motor, or autonomic nerves. Nerve lesions are induced by deposits of amyloid fibrils and treatment approaches for neuropathy are challenging. Involvement of cranial nerves and atrophy in facial muscles is a real concern i...
متن کاملTreatment by pacemaker in familial amyloid polyneuropathy.
Amyloid deposits often involve the heart and cause disturbances in conduction and impulse formation in patients with familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP). Seven patients with FAP required pacemaker treatment during eight years. The most frequent bradyarrhythmias requiring pacing were sinus node dysfunction with junctional failure. Our seven patients had attacks and symptoms of bradyarrhythmias...
متن کاملMyocardial muscarinic receptor upregulation and normal response to isoproterenol in denervated hearts by familial amyloid polyneuropathy.
BACKGROUND Patients with familial amyloid polyneuropathy, a rare hereditary form of amyloidosis, have progressive autonomic neuropathy. The disease usually does not induce heart failure but is associated with sudden death, conduction disturbances, and an increased risk of complications during anesthesia.

متن کاملDisturbances of cardiac rhythm and conduction in familial amyloidosis with polyneuropathy.
Sixteen consecutive patients with familial amyloidosis with polyneuropathy of varying duration and severity underwent 24 hour ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring. A high incidence of sinus node dysfunction, supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias, and disturbances of atrioventricular conduction was found. Considerably more arrhythmias and disturbances of conduction were detected by ...
