Abstract
The most common clinical presentation of amyloid light chain amyloidosis (AL-A) includes renal involvement, with a progressive worsening of renal function and congestive heart failure. Unfortunately, the prognosis of cardiac amyloidosis is often very poor. Echocardiography and electrocardiography play cornerstone role in the diagnosis and management of cardiac amyloidosis. We describe a patient with multiple myeloma who was admitted to our clinic with progressive dyspnea due to cardiac amyloidosis. This case reveals an unusual manifestation of cardiac amyloidosis on electrocardiogram.
