초록

Introduction: Cardiac amyloidosis is a rare form of cardiomyopathy caused by amyloid deposition in the myocardium. This study reported on the effects of Korean medicine treatment on a patient with cardiac amyloidosis. Case Summary: A 60-year-old male patient visited a Korean medical clinic with dyspnea, general weakness, multiple pains in the lower back, right hip joint, and both knee joints, and tingling sensations in both the upper and lower limbs. The patient was treated with acupuncture using a combination of multiple acupoints, cupping, and Western medications. After 84 outpatient treatments, most subjective symptoms, including multiple pains, tingling sensations, general weakness, and abdominal discomfort, were relieved. The numeric rating scale (NRS) scores for low back pain and right hip joint pain decreased from 8 (Day 1) to 0 (Day 124). Conclusion: This report suggests that Korean medical treatment could be a viable option for symptom management in patients with cardiac amyloidosis.
