Overview

In amyloidosis, insoluble fibrils of amyloid are deposited in organs, causing organ dysfunction and eventually death. Patients with amyloidosis may eventually suffer from heart failure, nephrotic syndrome, hepatomegaly and peripheral neuropathy. Prognosis is poor and 5-years survival rate is 51.3%.Infection and renal failure are the most common cause of death.
