A nivel cardiovascular, el amiloide se deposita en el tejido miocárdico generando las manifestaciones típicas de la enfermedad. Presenta hallazgos electrocardiográficos y ecocardiográficos distintivos que proporcionan una ayuda invaluable en el diagnóstico de la amiloidosis cardiaca. En el presente artículo se expone un caso de un paciente portador de amiloidosis AL, quien exhibe síntomas de falla cardiaca y en el cual se documenta posteriormente severo compromiso cardiovascular. Además, se presenta una revisión de las manifestaciones cardiovasculares y el diagnóstico de dicha patología.]]></p></abstract>

At a cardiovascular level, amyloid is deposited in the myocardial tissue and thus generating the typical manifestations of the disease. It presents distinctive electrocardiographic and echocardiographic findings that provide invaluable help in the diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis. In this article, a case of a patient with AL amyloidosis is presented. Said patient developed symptoms of heart failure, which later progressed into severe cardiovascular compromise. Furthermore, a review of the cardiovascular manifestations and the diagnosis of said pathology is presented.]]></p></abstract>
