GI involvement among amyloidosis patients is common. Its clinical manifestation often presents with nonspecific symptoms such as weight loss, diarrhea, and malabsorption. With no specific treatment existing for GI amyloidosis, therapy focuses on impeding amyloid deposition and managing the patients' symptoms with supportive measures. Here, we present an AL\u2010amyloidosis patient with GI involvement and intestinal failure (IF) who was successfully treated with the glucagon\u2010like peptide\u20102 (GLP\u20102) analogue teduglutide. Over the course of treatment with teduglutide, the patient was able to achieve independence from parenteral nutrition and experienced a significant improvement in quality of life (QoL) as stool frequency and consistency improved, urinary output was stabilized and body weight as well as body composition improved over the course of teduglutide therapy. With no longer being exposed to the burden and associated risks of parenteral nutrition, we were able to reduce the potential morbidity and mortality rate as well as to improve the patient's overall QoL. Intestinal tissue biopsy workup revealed a histopathological correlate for the clinical response; Congo\u2010Red\u2010positive intestinal depositions almost completely disappeared within 6\u2009months of teduglutide therapy. Implementing intestinotrophic GLP\u20102 analogue teduglutide may enrich the spectrum of treatment options for amyloidosis patients with IF who are dependent on parenteral support.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ccr3.7653","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,21]],"date-time":"2023-08-21T18:31:02Z","timestamp":1692642662000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Teduglutide in amyloidosis\u2010associated intestinal failure"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-4701-5783","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Clara","family":"Luhn","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Visceral Surgery, Department of General Surgery Medical University Vienna  Vienna Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hermine","family":"Agis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Hematology and Hemostaseology, Department of Internal Medicine I Medical University of Vienna  Vienna Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elisabeth","family":"H\u00fctterer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Oncology, Department of Internal Medicine I Medical University of Vienna  Vienna Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ingrid","family":"Simonitsch\u2010Klupp","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology Medical University of Vienna  Vienna Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Christopher","family":"Dawoud","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Visceral Surgery, Department of General Surgery Medical University Vienna  Vienna Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Anton","family":"Stift","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Visceral Surgery, Department of General Surgery Medical University Vienna  Vienna Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Felix","family":"Harpain","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Visceral Surgery, Department of General Surgery Medical University Vienna  Vienna Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.coph.2005.10.005"},{"issue":"4","key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","first-page":"104","article-title":"Systemic amyloidosis: are we moving ahead?","volume":"62","author":"Merlini G","year":"2004","journal-title":"Neth J Med"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(15)01274-X"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/joim.13169"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1572-0241.2007.01669.x"},{"issue":"2","key":"e_1_2_10_7_1","first-page":"147","article-title":"Massive intestinal hemorrhage associated with intestinal amyloidosis.
