Mitochondrial complex I and III mutations and neutral-lipid storage in activated mononuclear macrophages and neutrophils: a case presenting with necrotizing myopathy, poikiloderma atrophicans vasculare, and xanthogranulomatous bursitis.

Abstract excerpt

We report the case of a 57-year-old woman suffering from xanthogranulomatous bursitis, necrotizing myopathy, and poikiloderma atrophicans vasculare, which are associated with marked accumulation of neutral-lipid storage phagocytes. The observed lipid storage was restricted to activated phagocytes independent of the presence of tissue necrosis and was not seen either in circulating blood leukocytes or in muscle...
