Transthyretin (TTR) variants of familial amyloid neuropathies (FAP) form a heterogenous group of autosomal dominantly inherited diseases. TTR gene analysis in several nationalities (Japanese, Portuguese, French, and British) has shown many distinguishing characteristics in the genotype-phenotype correlation. In Chinese, there are only a few reports of private TTR gene mutations belonging to single kindred.
