Overview
Physical examination of patients with wild-type (senile) amyloidosis can be significant for the condition in question and can also translate the variety of pathologies as a part of aging and age-related comorbidities.
Physical Examination
Physical examination of patients with wild-type (senile) amyloidosis can be significant for the condition in question and can also translate the variety of pathologies as a part of aging and age-related comorbidities.
Appearance of the Patient
- Patients with wild-type (senile) amyloidosis appear senile.
- Exact appearance of the patients depend upon the severity of the condition.
Vital Signs
Skin
HEENT
- HEENT examination of patients with wild-type (senile) amyloidosis is usually normal.
Neck
Lungs
- Pulmonary examination of patients with wild-type (senile) amyloidosis is usually normal.
Heart
- Third heart sound
- Fourth heart sound
- Arrhythmias [2]
- Auscultation may also reveal rales, heart murmurs, and/or other pathologic heart sounds.
- In patients with valvular heart disease involvement, murmurs of mitral and tricuspid regurgitation may be heard.
Abdomen
- Hepatomegaly may be present in the setting of right heart failure
- Ascites may be present in the setting of right heart failure
- Splenomegaly is rare
Back
- Back examination of patients with wild-type (senile) amyloidosis is usually normal.
Genitourinary
- Genitourinary examination of patients with wild-type (senile) amyloidosis is usually normal.
Neuromuscular
Extremities
