Abstract:
A sural nerve biopsy was performed in a 10 year-old girl with a Cockayne syndrome. Morphometric and electron microscope studies revealed signs of a chronic demyelinating disease and some dense inclusions in Schwann cells. The significance of these abnormalities is discussed from a review of literature.
