This study aims to determine the proportion of patients who test positive for cardiac amyloidosis at the five-year follow-up assessment, focusing on cases in which histological amyloid deposits were identified during surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome or trigger finger, yet who tested negative for cardiac amyloidosis at the time of surgery.
Others
We will conduct an exploratory analysis of clinical factors associated with the development of a positive result.
The rate of conversion to cardiac amyloidosis at the five-year follow-up assessment
1. Comparison of the positivity rate between cases of carpal tunnel syndrome and trigger finger
2. Association between positivity and clinical factors such as age, gender, bilateral involvement, involvement of multiple fingers, and spinal stenosis
3. Association between the location and subtype of amyloid deposits at the time of surgery and positivity at the 5-year follow-up
4. Echocardiographic findings, biomarkers, and distribution of 99mTc-PYP myocardial scintigraphy uptake at the 5-year follow-up

Single-center prospective observational study. Eligible patients are those who underwent surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome or trigger finger at our hospital from February 2020 onward, had amyloid deposition confirmed in surgically obtained tissue, and were judged negative for cardiac amyloidosis at the time of surgery. Eligible cases will be identified from existing medical records and pathological data, and after informed consent, cardiac amyloidosis positivity at 5 years after surgery will be evaluated. Factors to be explored include age, sex, bilaterality, multiple digit involvement, lumbar spinal stenosis, and the site/subtype of amyloid deposition.
