8 Abstract A Case of Primary Cardiac Amyloidosis with Various Cardiac Symptoms Masachika Tamura, Kiyoshi Nakazawa, Taishi Mikami, Mariko Arai, Yoshihiro Akashi, Keizou Osada, Akihiko Takagi, Ryouji Kishi, Tomoyuki Kunishima, Masayoshi Sakakibara, Fumihiko Miyake and Akio Kazama 2 A case of amyloidosis with various cardiac symptoms in a 6-year-old female is reported. She started to complain symptoms of cardiac failure from January 200, and was admitted to our hospital on February. Arrhythmias were simply treated with pacemaker implantation (DDD) for Sick Sinus Syndrome, and with catheter ablation for atrial flutter, because no evidence for structural heart disease was revealed with detailed examinations. The patient was discharged in April after the pacemaker setting was changed to VVI mode, due to the gradual atrial lead pacing threshold worsening from unknown cause. In July, the patient was readmitted due to relapsed cardiac failure and newly developed syncope. Twelve lead standard ECG have remarkably changed from the initial admission, which indicated progression of atrial stand-still phenomenon and ventricular muscle disorder. Syncope was diagnosed as from ventricular tachycardia, thus implantable cardioverter defibrillator was implanted. Restudy of cardiac catheter examination demonstrated restricted right ventricular dilatation, and endocardiac biopsy revealed amyloid deposition, leading to the diagnosing cardiac amyloidosis. She was discharged in August, because the cardiac failure symptom was relieved, but readmitted again in September from poor ingestion. During this admission under nutrition adjustment, sudden respiratory distress and cardiogenic shock led to her to death within 0 months after her visit. Autopsy revealed a primary amyloidosis which was believed to be the cause of her heart failure, arrhythmia, and pacing failure.
