title: [Morphological alterations of the skeletal muscles in mitochondrial myopathies in children and their mothers].
abstract: Skeletal muscle biopsies from 18 children and 8 from their mothers were studied in mitochondrial myopathies. It is shown that by means of electron microscopy, histochemistry, and morphometry the correct diagnosis of mitochondrial insufficiency is quite possible.
