  • Title: Inclusion body myositis (IBM). Morphological study.
    Author: Fidziańska A, Drac H, Glinka Z.
    Journal: Neuropatol Pol; 1992; 30(3-4):199-207. PubMed ID: 1340913.
    Abstract:
    Among the chronic idiopathic inflammatory myopathies inclusion body myositis (IBM) has emerged as a clinicopathologic variant. Slowly progressive weakness of the distal and the proximal muscle groups, the presence of rimmed vacuoles with basophilic granules as well as 15-18-nm filamentous inclusions in affected muscle confirm the clinical and histopathological distinction between inclusion body myositis and chronic polymyositis.
