Inclusions may occur in mitochondria, either within the matrix, or as shown here, within an expanded intracristal compartment. Upper panel, a lattice of yolk crystals in an ovarian oocyte of the bullfrog Rana catesbiana; lower panel, an unusual accumulation glycogen granules in a myocardial cell from cat. Upper panel from W. Massover, J. Ultrastruct. Res., 36: 603-620, 1971). Figures 250 (upper) and 251 (lower) from Chapter 7 (Mitochondria) of 'The Cell, 2nd Ed.' by Don W. Fawcett M.D. A PDF copy of the accompanying chapter is available on the ASCB's BioEDUCATE website.
