Description: Cardiac amyloidosis, once considered a rare and untreatable disorder, is now recognized as an important and often overlooked cause of restrictive cardiomyopathy. This presentation explores the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and classification of amyloidosis with a focused review on transthyretin (ATTR) cardiac amyloidosis. Attendees will gain an understanding of emerging diagnostic strategies, current and investigational therapies—including TTR stabilizers and gene silencers—and key evidence guiding modern management.
