A new ATTR Phe64Ile mutation with late-onset multiorgan involvement.

We describe a novel transthyretin mutation in which phenylalanine is replaced with isoleucine in exon 3 at codon 64: Phe64Ile. The mutation was found in an isolated patient and it was not possible to perform a family study. The phenotype included heart and peripheral nerve involvement associated with a possible gastrointestinal and renal involvement.
