Abstract excerpt

Between 1976 and 2003, we diagnosed 144 patients with familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP) in the Balearic Islands (Spain). Analysis of genetic epidemiological data from 102 confirmed patients showed 62% were men. Parental transmission was paternal in 38, maternal in 25, and unknown in 39. No family history of FAP was found in 32 patients. TTRVal30Met associated with haplotype I was present in the individuals...
