  • Title: Morphological changes of erythrocytes in patients and carriers of Duchenne disease.
    Author: Vasiljević ZM, Polić DD.
    Journal: Acta Neurol Scand; 1983 Apr; 67(4):242-4. PubMed ID: 6858614.
    Abstract:
    The morphology of erythrocytes was investigated in 7 patients with Duchenne dystrophy and in 6 carriers of the same disease. Upon immediate fixation, the erythrocytes showed significant stomatocytosis which was observed in a scanning electron microscope. The mean value of the % of stomatocytes was significantly different in carriers compared to healthy people (P less than 0.01).
