caused by mutations in the 2 structural genes that encode the a1 and a2 peptides of type 1 collagen. the main collagen of bone and skin
(Subtractive ) tarda, deafness
Osteogenesis imperfecta
( brittle bone disease)
most common inherited disorder of the skeletal system. results in bone deformity and dwarfism
(narrowed foramen magnum) causing neural compression
Achondroplasia
bone forming cells that line the medullary canal and are interspersed throughout the periosteum
Osteoblasts
specialized cells the break down bone to enlarge the medullary canal and allow for bone growth
Osteoclasts
marble bone( skeletal modeling) abnormally heavy and compact bone, yet brittle. All bones can be affected. Most common:extremities, vertebrae, pelvis, base of skull.(additive)
Osteopetrosis
common form of osteosclerotic osteopetrosis. increased bone density, with fairly normal bone
contour
Albers-Schonberg disease
webbed digits
Syndactyly
presence of extra digits
Polydactyly
malformation of the acetabulum-does not form completely. unilateral or bilateral. Head of femur displaced Superiorly and posteriorly
Developmental Dysplasia of the hip-(DDH)
abnormal lateral curvature of the spine
convex to the right-thoracic
convex to the left-Lumbar
Scoliosis
Takes on characteristics of both vertebrae on each side. Eg: !st lumbar vertebrae may have rudimentary ribs
Transitional Vertebrae
Incomplete closure of the vertebral canal. most common in Lumbosacral area
Spina Bifida
congenital anomaly-cause an overgrowth of unfused sutures to accommodate brain growth, altering the shape of the head
Craniosynotosis
congenital abnormality- brain and cranial vault do not form. In most cases only the facial bones are formed. Death shortly after birth
Anencephaly
infection of bone marrow and bone caused by a pathogenic organism(hematogenous)from an infection within a contiguous site, or direct introduction of the microorganism
Osteomyelitis
chronic inflammatory disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Tuberculosis
Tuberculosis of the spine
Pott's Disease
disorders of the joints. including, but not limited to: arthritis, bursitis, tendonitis, and tenosynovitis.
Arthropathies
inflammation of the joint
Arthritis
Caused by; S. aureus, streptococci, and neisseria gonorrhaeae. rapid onset of pain, redness, swelling, often accompanied by fever
Infectious arthritis
inflammatory arthritis associated with psoriasis of the skin and involves rheumatoid-like destructive process that affects the distal phalangial joints of the hands and feet
Psoriatic arthritis
(rheumatoid arthritis-variant) involves the sacroiliac joints, calcaneus, and toes. associated with: GI and genitourinary infections
Reiter's Syndrome
Chronic autoimmune disease that may fluctuate in severity. Can be deforming to joints. Late changes can be severe: bone and cartilage destruction, dislocation
Rheumatoid arthritis
progressive arthritis mainly involving the soine
Ankylosing spondylitis
(Marie Strumpell Disease)
inflammatory or erosive and destructive
arthritis
Osteoarthritis
(degenerative joint disease)
Bone spurs
Indicate osteoarthritis
Osteophytes
Inflammation of ta tendon
tendonitis
Inflammation of tendon and sheath
tensinovitis
excess uric acid deposits in joints, especially the big toe
Gouty arthritis
inflammation of the bursa sac
Bursitis
cystic swelling that develops in connection with a tendon sheath
Ganglion
slippage of the body of the vertebrae
most common in lumbar
esp, L5-S1 (90%)
spodylolithesis
5th lumbar vertebrae
cleft or breaking down of the body of a vertebrae between the superior and inferior articular processes. broken neck on "Scotty dog"
spondylolysis
Bone Tumors
Neoplastic disease
most common "benign" bone tumor.
affects men 3 times more than women. arise from metaphysis of long bones.
Osteochondroma
excessive bone growth
Exostoses
"benign" bone tumor commonly located on the skull. Can cause obstructions in the; nasal cavity, cranium, or oral cavity
Osteoma
slow growing bone tumor"benign" composed of cartilage. It grows in marrow space, affects small bones of the hands and feet. they do not invade surrounding tissue
endochondroma
wall of fibrous tissue filled with fluid
long bones of children
80% 3-14 yrs of age
boys more than girls
simple unicameral bone cyst
idiopathic-not true neoplasm
metaphysis of long bones
blood filled arterio-venous communications
aneurysmal bone cyst
