Perfil histoquimico y morfometrico de la afectacion muscular en la scoliosis de origen idiopatico

espanolHemos estudiado musculos de pacientes con escoliosis idiopatica. Las biopsias fueron tomadas de la musculatura espinal, en el vertice de los lados concavo y convexo. Se realizo un examen histoquimico y morfometrico que revelo amplios cambios patologicos. Estas alteraciones eran de caracter inespecifico. Ciertos cambios patologicos localizados del musculo. central-core. agrupamiento celular. ... sugieren que la escoliosis idiopatica es una entidad autonoma que tiene como factor etiologico un desorden del sistema nervioso central. Las fibras tipo 1 tuvieron diferencias mas altamente significativas que las otras. EnglishSpecimen biopsies taken from the paraspinal muscles in patients with idiopathic scoliosis were studied. The specimen were taken from the muscles of the convex and concave sides with the aim of observing the possible significative different findings between them. Light microscopy and histochemical and morphometrical examination showed evident pathological changes, but with no significant specific differences. However, the localized muscle changes, central-core, and grouping fibers suggest idiopathic scoliosis to be a separate disease en which the central nervous system may be involved in its development. Resides, the type 1 fibers showed higher morphometric differences on cach side.
