Abstract:A 31-year-old patinet with suspected facioscopulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FHSD) was examined. A biopsy of biceps dexter was performed. In some fibres electronmicroscopy analysis revealed changes in the sarcomeres structure and a local loss of myofibrils. Abnormal, folded nuclei penetrating deep into the cytoplasm with large gap between inner and outer nuclear membrane were observed. Few autophagal srtuctures were seen. The image of specimen suggests nucleopathy. Asseessment of activity of lamin A and ermetrin is advisable.
