Gastrointestinal symptoms are frequent in familial amyloid polyneuropathy, mainly resulting from autonomic nervous system involvement. Dysphagia is one of the possible symptoms, although rarely severe or sudden. We describe a case of a sudden onset and severe dysphagia, a rare form of presentation, in a patient whose polyneuropathy was still beeing investigated and turned out to be ATTRVal30Met-polyneuropathy.
胃肠道症状在家族性淀粉样多神经病中很常见，主要是由于自主神经系统受累所致。吞咽困难是可能的症状之一，尽管很少见严重或突然发生。我们描述了一例突然发作和严重吞咽困难的病例，这是一种罕见的表现形式，该患者的多发性神经病仍在研究中，结果证实为 ATTRVal30Met 多神经病。
