  • Title: [Muscular biopsy].
    Author: Coquet M, Pellissier JF.
    Journal: Ann Pathol; 1996 Dec; 16(6):471-7. PubMed ID: 9090943.
    Abstract:
    Muscle biopsy is a simple procedure of great diagnostic interest when correct processing is obtained. Specimens for molecular genetics are very important. Paraffin embedded material is not sufficient in most of the cases except in some inflammatory processes. Histochemical techniques on frozen material are of major interest. Immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy can also be used. The aim of this paper is to describe the procedure of the muscle biopsy, the various techniques and the possible artefacts.
