Discordancia entre el voltaje del electrocardiograma y el grosor parietal del ventículo izquierdo. clave diagnóstica en amiloidosis cardíaca / [Inconsistency between voltage of the electrocardiogram and the left ventricular wall thickness. diagnostic key in cardiac amyloidosis].

ABSTRACT

Restrictive cardiomyopathy is the least common form of cardiomyopathy, and the disease that most often cause it, is the system amyloidosis. We present a 62-year-old with a history of heart failure, which in its assessment highlights the discrepancy between the low voltage ventricular complexes in the electrocardiogram and the severity of left ventricular wall thickness on echocardiography. This discrepancy was the source of suspicion and subsequent confirmation of systemic amyloidosis with cardiac involvement.
