Genetic counselling for at-risk family members with hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis: data from a single-centre study

Background Hereditary transthyretin-related amyloidosis is an autosomal dominant disorder. Recently, disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) have been developed. For at-risk individuals, genetic analysis aids in the early administration of medical care; however, few studies have evaluated the current status of genetic counselling and management of presymptomatic carriers of amyloidogenic variants.
