Description:

Muscle segment examination in light and electron microscopy

Abstract:

A 27-year-old patient with suspected metabolic myopathy was examined. A biopsy of biceps sinister was performed. Electronmicroscopy analysis revald normal ultrastructure of muscle fibers. Morphologically unchanged nuclei were seen, but nucleus located in the middle of the fiber was observed. Few fat droplets were seen ( Fig 1,2). Miicroscopic image of the biopsy is not specific neither for primary muscular atrophy nor for neurogenic atrophy. Biochemical evaluation of cornitine plamitoyltransferase in the muscle tissue was performed and the result was 5,54 nM/mgB/min. (Norm. 6,5-18nM/mgB/min).
