We report the case of a 65-year-old man who gradually developed numbness in both hands, lower limb muscle weakness and atrophy, and orthostatic hypotension over two and a half years. These symptoms indicated hereditary ATTR amyloidosis (ATTRv amyloidosis), and the final diagnosis was established through proof of TTR gene mutation (V30M). We initiated patisiran therapy, and a continuous 6-minute walking test performed 3 weeks from the start of therapy demonstrated improvement in the walking distance. This is a single case report showing the improvement in the motor and sensory function on administration of patisiran monotherapy from an early stage.
