title: Intramitochondrial calcification and myocardial inclusions in the rabbit due to anoxic hypoxia.
abstract: Intramitochondrial calcium granules and calcification of the mitochondrial cristae were examined in myocardial cells of rabbits in acute anoxic hypoxia, under normal circulation. The alterations were noted first after 2 hours of hypoxia, and became progressively larger and more ubiquitous with increasing periods of anoxic hypoxia. After 8 hours or longer hypoxia intramitochondrial "cristalloids" were found in some mitochondria.
