Transthyretin-related hereditary amyloidosis genetic testing revealed a rare c.251T > C variant p.(Phe84Ser). Only four cases with this variant have been reported before.<br />Competing Interests: Conflict of interest: Authors state no conflict of interest<br /> (© 2022 Xian-rang Yan et al., published by De Gruyter.)
