Abstract
A case of centronuclear myopathy is presented. The presence of central nuclei in almost all fibres, the existence of type I fibres only, the histochemical pattern of a negative central zone with a perinuclear halo and a hyperactive rim with oxidative enzymes and the ultrastructural data are discussed in the light of the previous literature. The possible relationships with other myopathies are taken into consideration as well as the fact that central nuclei may be a non-specific change in several conditions. Consequently centronuclear myopathy could turn out to be a syndrome from which different entities can be isolated.
