Abstract:
:Using special soft tissue X-ray investigations the authors have found that the increase in volume of the calf musculature in progressive muscular dystrophy does not seem to be in complete accordance with the criteria of pseudohypertrophy. It has been demonstrated that this structural alteration of the musculature does not damage the various muscles to an equal extent. It has been shown that in two cases of motoneurone lesions the total decay of the calf musculature was not followed by loss of muscle bulk. The volume of the damaged musculature remained unchanged, or increased, in consequence of the enormous increase in the fat and connective tissue. This structural alteration corresponds to the generally accepted definition of pseudohypertrophy.
