From left ventricular hypertrophy to Waldenström macroglobulinemia: a case report

Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is a common cardiac finding generally caused by an adaptation of the myocardium to increased pressure or volume load, or systemic conditions or genetic mutations. Amyloidosis still remains a mysterious disease, with extremely diverse palette of symptoms and poor prognosis, caused by extracellular deposits of autological proteins with a fibrillar ultrastructure and specific properties. According to anatomical and clinical criteria, it can be presented as systemic or localized type.
