Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) is a life-threatening infiltrative disease in elderly patients. Atrial arrhythmias (AAr) are common in patients with ATTR-CM. However, AAr treatment in these patients is challenging. In this case, a patient diagnosed with wild-type ATTR-CM suffered atrial fibrillation (AF) for ~1 year, according to the data of his self-monitoring and regular electrocardiogram. This AF reverted to normal sinus rhythm a few months after the initiation of tafamidis without administering an antiarrhythmic drug. Tafamidis may be beneficial as alternative antiarrhythmic therapy in patients with ATTR-CM.
