Musculoskeletal System Lecture 10,11 Disease of the Bone
Musculoskeletal System Lecture 10,11 Disease of the Bone
10,11Q:

What the heck is achondroplasia?
It's the most common form of inherited dwarfism.

autosomal dominant
10,11Q:

Whats the problem with achondroplasia?
Mutation in fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3)
Activation of FGFR3 inhibits cartilage synthesis at the epiphyseal growth plate, resulting in decreased enchondral bone formation and premature ossification of the growth plates.
The long bones become short and thick, leading to short extremities, and dwarfism. but don't you worry, cranial and vertebral bones are spared, and intelligence, lifespan, and reproductivity is normal.
10,11Q:

Whats the hereditary defect in Osteogenesis Imperfecta?
abnormal synthesis of type I collagen.
OGI is also known as Brittle Bone Disease.
10,11Q:

What do you see with those with OGI?
osteopenia (brittle bones), recurrent fractures, bone deformity, thin sclera with a blue hue, hypermobility, deafness, dentin deficiency
10,11Q:

Type I Osteogenesis Imperfecta
Autosomal dominant
Fractures
Blue sclerae
Hearing Loss
Little progression after puberty
10,11Q:

Type II Osteogenesis Imperfecta
Autosomal recessive
Stillborn infant or death after birth with generalized crumpled bones.

*most serious type
10,11Q:

Type III Osteogenesis Imperfecta
Autosomal dominant or recessive
Progressive
Multiple fractures
Severe skeletal deformity
Dentinogenesis imperfecta
Hearing loss
Blue to white sclerae
10,11Q:

Type IV Osteogenesis Imperfecta
Autosomal dominant
Variable severity
Fractures
Skeletal deformity
Normal sclerae
Sometimes dentinogenesis imperfecta
10,11Q:

Osteopetrosis hereditary defect
decreased osteoclast function, leading to decreased resorption and thick sclerotic bones
10,11Q:

Paget Disease (Osteitis Deformans)
3 Stages
1. Osteolytic: osteoclastic activity predominates
2. Mixed osteolytic – osteoblastic
3. Osteosclerotic: osteoblastic activity predominates “burnout stage”
10,11Q:

Osteopetrosis Hereditary defect, pathology
decreased osteoclast function, leading to decreased resorption and thick sclerotic bones. thick bones still break easily. Myelophthisic process may lead to pancytopenia due to narrowing and fibrosis of medullar cavities. Cranial Nerve Compression!
10,11Q:

Clinical Forms of Osteopetrosis
Autosomal recessive (malignant type)
Affects infants and children
Multiple fractures

Autosomal dominant (benign type)
Affects adults
Fractures
Mild anemia
Cranial nerve impingement

Carbonic anhydrase II deficiency
Autosomal recessive
Renal tubular acidosis and cerebral calcification


Early death due to anemia, infection or hemorrhage
10,11Q:

Most Common Bone Disorder in the United States of America.
Osteoporosis
-most commonly occurs with postmenopausal and elderly women
-decreased bone mass (osteopenia), resulting in thin, fragile bones that are susceptible to fracture
-estrogen deficiency
-genetic factors
-lack of exercise, old age, nutrition
10,11Q:

Definition of Padget Disease?
localized disorder of bone remodeling, resulting in excessive bone resorption followed by disorganized bone replacement, producing thickened but weak bone that is susceptible to deformity and fracture
10,11Q:

How do the vertebral bodies change during Osteoporosis
Osteoporotic vertebral body is shortened by compression fractures, compared with a normal vertebral body. Note that the osteoporotic vertebra has a characteristic loss of horizontal trabeculae and thickened vertical trabeculae.
10,11Q:

common feature of Osteomalacia and Rickets
both diseases are characterized by decreased mineralization of newly formed bone, usually caused by deficiency or abnormal metabolism of vitamin D
10,11Q:

Osteomyelitis
1.Pyogenic osteomyelitis
-Hematogenous spread the most commonn route of infection
-Seeding of bone after bacteremia
-Commonly affects the metaphysis

2.Tuberculous osteomyelitis
-1% of TB cases
-lumbar and vertabrae destruction
10,11Q:

Ewing Sarcoma
Malignant neoplasm of undifferentiated cells arising within the marrow cavity
-classic translocation t(11;22), which produces the EWS-FLI1 fusion protein
-concentric “onion skin” layering of new periosteal bone
10,11Q:

Most common primary malignant tumor of bone
Osteosarcoma (osteoginic sarcoma)
Codman’s triangle (periosteal elevation)
“Sunburst” pattern
Bone destruction
Often involves the metaphyses of long bones
Usually around the knee (distal femur and proximal tibia)
Large, firm, white-tan mass with necrosis and hemorrhage
10,11Q:

Whats more common, metastasis of bone or primary bone tumors?
metastasis of bone is. It's the most common form of bone tumor.
Common primary sites are:
Prostate (often osteoblastic)
Breast
Lung
Thyroid
Kidney
