title: [Dyspnea as the first clinical manifestation of amyloidosis].
abstract: We present a case of a 65-year-old woman, in whom diagnosis of primary systemic amyloidosis was established, being dyspnea the main cause of consultation. In addition, we emphasize the importance of the adequate valorization of such symptom in a patient with no precedents of cardiorespiratory pathology.
