text:
Familial Amyloidosis, Finnish Type (FAF), also called hereditary gelsolin amyloidosis and AGel amyloidosis (AGel), is an amyloid condition with a number of associated cutaneous and neurological presentations deriving from the aberrant proteolysis of a mutated form of plasma gelsolin. First described in 1969 by the Finnish ophthalmologist Jouko Meretoja, FAF is uncommon with 400–600 cases described in Finland and 15 elsewhere.
