Abstract

• We present an atypical variant case of wild-type transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis. • Amyloid deposition occurred mainly in the interventricular septum. • The classic apical sparing pattern was absent, despite other suggestive findings. • A high index of suspicion for amyloid should still be sought in such cases. • Multimodality imaging should be considered to investigate variant amyloid forms.
