Infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy

Abstract
Abnormal Schwann cell inclusion is reported in biopsied peripheral nerve in a cases of infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy. In addition to non-specific dystrophic changes of the axons, the Schwann cells contained several distinct bodies which were composed of stacks of irregularly disposed membranes; in some instances, transformed Schwann cell cytoplasm was distinded with similar bodies. This change has not been reported on this condition and its significance is briefly discussed.
