Abstract
The clinical case of cardiac pseudoamyloidosis associated with multiple myeloma Cardiac amyloidosis is an infiltrative cardiomyopathy resulting from extracellular deposition of amyloid- a specific protein-polysaccharide complex. This clinical case demonstrates an unverified amyloid-like heart lesion in the presence of unexplained thickening of the wall of an undilated left ventricle and manifestations of restrictive heart failure in a patient with myeloma. The difficulty of establishing an accurate diagnosis lies in the existence of a large number of types of amyloidogenic proteins, the diversity of the clinical picture, the absence of pathognomonic symptoms and of a single non-invasive diagnostic tool for verification.
