Screening for Systemic Amyloidosis Via the Ligamentum Flavum (ALF)

Study Description
Brief Summary:
The investigators will prospectively evaluate for the presence of amyloid deposits in ligamentum flavum (yellow ligament) tissue samples obtained from patients undergoing spinal stenosis surgery. Patients who have tissue that stains positive for amyloid will be referred to an amyloidosis specialist.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Amyloid Amyloidosis Spinal Stenosis Transthyretin Amyloidosis Primary Amyloidosis of Light Chain Type Procedure: Biopsy

Detailed Description:

Similar to carpal tunnel syndrome, spinal stenosis is associated with systemic amyloidosis and presents earlier than cardiac amyloidosis symptoms - 21-45% of ATTR patients and case reports in AL patients. The investigators' recent study found that 10% of older patients undergoing carpal tunnel release surgery were positive for amyloidosis, with 20% of that group presenting with cardiac involvement. 70% of the amyloid-positive group had a history of spinal stenosis and 40% required surgical intervention. Surgical intervention for spinal stenosis could provide an opportunity to screen for amyloidosis through yellow ligament (ligamentum flavum) biopsy.

This study will look at the prevalence of amyloidosis in patients undergoing surgical intervention for non-congenital spinal stenosis and spondyloarthropathy. The investigators hypothesize that 10% of such patients will be positive for amyloidosis.

Study Design

Study Type : Observational
Estimated Enrollment : 200 participants
Observational Model: Cohort
Time Perspective: Prospective
Official Title: Screening for Systemic Amyloidosis Via the Ligamentum Flavum
Actual Study Start Date : May 1, 2019
Estimated Primary Completion Date : April 1, 2022
Estimated Study Completion Date : October 1, 2022
Arms and Interventions
Group/Cohort Intervention/treatment
Spinal Stenosis Biopsy
Biopsy of ligamentum flavum tissue during spinal stenosis surgery sent to pathology for amyloid-specific analysis
Procedure: Biopsy
During clinically-scheduled spinal stenosis surgery, ligamentum flavum tissue (which may contain surrounding tissue and subcutaneous fat) that is removed during the procedure will be sent to pathology to be analyzed with amyloid-specific staining.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Incidence of amyloidosis in older patients undergoing spinal stenosis surgery [ Time Frame: Baseline to 30 days ]
    Incidence of amyloid deposits in removed ligamentum flavum tissue of older patients undergoing spinal stenosis surgery


Biospecimen Retention:   Samples With DNA
Ligamentum flavum tissue (may contain surrounding tissue and subcutaneous fat)
