The light- and electron-microscopical findings in the skeletal muscle of a patient with Marinesco-Sjogren syndrome (MSS) are presented. Muscle biopsy specimens showed myopathy with slightly dystrophic changes including variation in fiber size, muscle fiber necrosis, regeneration and rimmed vacuole formation. Fiber type analysis with myosin ATPase staining showed a mild increase in type 2C fibers. Electron microscopy revealed autophagic vacuoles with numerous myeloid bodies, and a unique dense membranous structure associated with nuclei. We consider that this unique membranous structure is an important feature in the muscle pathology of MSS.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008297 Male Males
D008854 Microscopy, Electron Microscopy using an electron beam, instead of light, to visualize the sample, thereby allowing much greater magnification. The interactions of ELECTRONS with specimens are used to provide information about the fine structure of that specimen. In TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY the reactions of the electrons that are transmitted through the specimen are imaged. In SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY an electron beam falls at a non-normal angle on the specimen and the image is derived from the reactions occurring above the plane of the specimen. Electron Microscopy
