description: "A type of metachromasia localized to a peripheral nerve. Metachromasia may be defined as the staining of tissue or tissue components such that the color of the tissue-bound dye complex differs significantly from the color of the original dye complex to give a marked contrast in color. For instance in metachromatic leukodystrophy, bloated Schwann cells, containing granularmetachromatic storage material May display a characteristic yellow green dichroism under crossed polarised light."
