[Ultrastructural study of a chordoma].

An ultrastructural study of a case of sacral chordoma is reported. The cell type was monomorphic. The epithelial nature and the secretory function of the tumour cells was obvious in view of their content of desmosomes and the presence of mucopolysaccharide in the ergastoplasm and in the extracellular space. Because of the lack of intracytoplasmic vacuoles in the case reported, the authors doubt the individuality of the so-called "giant physaliphorous cell". The authors consider that the vacuolar appearance of the tumour cells is due to cytoplasmic invaginations caused by the enlarged extracellular space containing acid mucopolysaccharides or by processes of histiocytes containing the same material.

Concentric laminated bodies in muscle pathology.

Concentric laminated bodies are described in five cases (one case previously reported and four new ones) of various muscle diseases. A general review of previous reports on these structures is made. They appear to be unspecific bodies generally noticed in abnormal skeletal muscle in various disorders; nevertheless they were found in normal muscle fibres of the mothers of children affected by myopathy. They have a complex filamentous structure. According to the authors, their myofilamentous nature is uncertain but seems more probable than a mitochondrial or lipidic one.
