A muscle-biopsy specimen from a 33-year-old man who had been treated with zidovudine for 24 months shows an accumulation of fine reddish granules in the sarcoplasm, corresponding to mitochondria in atrophic fibers (trichrome, x600). In addition to mitochondrial accumulation, the fibers show marked myofilamentous abnormalities that include myofibrillar loss and cytoplasmic-body formation (arrows).
