Familial amyloidosis
Terin amyloidosis is an autosomal dominant disorder that affects multiple systems and has historically had a poor prognosis. Recent advancements in treatment have improved disease management, although misdiagnosis and delays are still common.

Current treatments include gene silencers and stabilizers, with ongoing research into new therapies.Speaker: Pietro Guaraldi
