Poor Yield of Routine Transthyretin Screening in Patients with Idiopathic Neuropathy.

The Canadian journal of neurological sciences. Le journal canadien des sciences neurologiques - 1 Nov 2020

Namiranian Dina, Chalk Colin, Massie Rami

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Transthyretin familial amyloid polyneuropathy (TTR-FAP) is caused by a mutation in the transthyretin (TTR) gene. Although classically described as rapidly progressive and life-threatening, recent studies on TTR-FAP show significant genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity depending on geographic localization. In light of new therapeutic advances and their implication for patient management,...
