|
what are the warning signs of osteoporosis?
|
there are no warning signs unless you fracture a vertebrae/hip/distal radius causing pain
vertebrae may collapse causing height loss and/or kyphosis |
|
explain the difference between osteoporosis and osteomalacia
|
porosis: increase porosity of bones due to a loss of bone mass the rate of resorption is great than rate of formation
malacia: bone softening due to a mineral xu |
|
what are the pathologic changes that occur with osteoporosis?
|
marrow canal widens making cortical bone thinner
more porous/spongy bone due to loss of trabeculae |
|
what pathologic change occurs with osteomalacia?
|
demineralization of bone causes softening
|
|
what are the manifestations of osteomalacia?
|
bone PAIN!
muscle weakness bone deformitites (kyphosis, bowleg) secondary hyperthyroidism (result of osteomalacia- increase blood Ca) pathologic fracture |
|
what are the pathologic changes of Pagets Disease?
|
rapid bone resorption(osteoclasts-too fast)) followed by production of abnormal bone that is rough and pitted- often precursor to osteosarcoma
|
|
what are the manifestations of Pagets Disease?
|
nerve pasly/compression
cardiovascular disorder-tachycardia causing death ventilation failure |
|
what are the test results needed that will diagnos pagets disease?
|
xrays
blood test- increased alkaline phosphatase urine test- increased hydroxyproline |
|
what is the tx for Pagets Disease?
|
anti-inflammatory drugs
Calcitonin- antagonist to osteoclast function Mithramycin- anti-metabolite cancer drug |
|
How can Osteoporosis be prevented?
|
exercise
1500mg Ca/day 400-800 IU Vit D HRT Calcitonin Biphosphonates (prevent resorption of bone) |
|
what are tophi and when do they appear?
|
=accumulation of uric acid in a joint/ear that manifests outward and is filled with a pasty/chalky white substance that is easy to rupture
occurs in cases of CHRONIC Gout |
|
Genu Varum vs Genu Valgum
|
Varum=bowleg
Valgum=knock knees - lax medial collateral ligament |
|

|
|
what are the manifestations of scoliosis?
|
high shoulder
prominent hip projecting scapula pain/sob |
|
what are the causes of structural classifications of scoliosis?
|
congenital-strctrl anomolies during embyronic dvlpmnt
neuromuscular- neuropathic/myopathic diseases idiopathic |
|
What is the pathology of Coxa PLana Leg-Calve-Perthes? what groups are most affected by this disease?
|
