periosteum
|
|
Haversian canals run ___
Volkmann canals run_____ |

|
osteoclasts munch in a ...
|
howship lacuna
|
|
synonyms for SPONGY bone
|
Trabecular
cancellous spongy Filling the interior of the bone is the trabecular bone tissue (an open cell porous network also called cancellous or spongy bone) |
|
Callus
|
Bone Repair
"Bony granulation tissue" It makes fibroblasts and the magic that turns on bone formation. That’s it! temporary formation of fibroblasts and chondroblasts which forms at the area of a bone fracture as the bone attempts to heal itself. The cells eventually dissipate and become dormant, lying in the resulting extracellular matrix that is the new bone. |
|
process of bone repair after fracture.
|
1) acute response (clean up by mphages)
2) osteogenic granulation tissue 3) union (reconstitute the structure) 4) remodeling to perfect structure |
|
Intact Vasculature
Stability Alignment Approximation Clean environs Normal metabolic state Age dependant |
factors required for successful repair of fractures!!
|
|
Compartment syndrome
Local vessel and/or nerve damage Fat embolism [femur; Rare] |
Fractures
early complications |
|
Secondary osteomyelitis
Compromised vasculature Malalignment, large gap |
Fractures
late complications |
|
major fracture with a lot of blood, fluid collection, like in your leg
Compression of blood vessels, etc. End up with necrotic leg. |
compartment syndrome
(Fascial compartment of the leg, for ex) |
|
A fracture in which bone is broken, splintered or crushed into a number of pieces.
|
Comminuted fractures
|
|
common location of what becomes a "complicated" fracture
|
tibia/fibula
No mm on top of your shin, how many times have you run into something? Distal tibia doesn’t have much blood supply anyway. You don’t have that many periosteal blood vessels so soon you have a non-union fracture due to the inadequate blood supply. Non-union fracture that resulted in amputation. Fibula and tibia. Young person. Complicated by site and limited blood supply. |
|
alcoholic, constantly falling down breaking bones, who seems to have 2 elbows
|
pseudoarthrosis
|
|
Causes for bone necrosis?
|
Traumatic [fracture]
Infection [septic necrosis, sequestrum] Avascular (idiopathic) necrosis |
|
Absence of osteocytes in bone lacunae, death of adjacent marrow
|
Bone Necrosis
|
|
how is bone necrosis repaired by the body?
|
“creeping substitution” of new bone around dead bone
|
|
common broken bones
|
femoral head (hip)
distal tibia (ankle) scaphoid (base of thumb) |
|
Symptomatic commonly if subchondral;
other sites may be silent |

|
|
Associated with.....
Dysbarism Gaucher disease Sickle cell anemia/hemoglobinopathies Alcoholism Cushing syndrome/Prednisone use |
avascular necrosis
|
|
femoral head:
Dead subchondral bone with articular cartilage collapse |
avascular necrosis
|
