Auriculo-ventricular block and distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles and desmin storage.

Abstract
A young patient had an auriculo-ventricular block and a distal myopathy with muscle biopsy findings suggestive of inclusion body myositis. What was most unusual was the presence of numerous sarcoplasmic bodies identified as desmin by electron microscopy and immunocytochemistry. The nosological situation of this condition is discussed.
