Interstitial Growth: Growth in length of long bones
RESTING (quiescent) zone
carilage on epiphyseal side of epiphysea plate
relatively inactive
Interstitial Growth: Growth in length of long bones
PROLIFERATION (growth) zone
cartilage on diaphysis side of epiphyseal plate
rapidly divide pushing epiphysis away from diaphysis-->lengthening
Interstitial Growth: Growth in length of long bones
HYPERTROPHIC ZONE
older chondrocytes closer to diaphysis and their lacunae enlarge and erode---> interconnecting spaces
Interstitial Growth: Growth in length of long bones
CALCIFICATION zone
surronding carilage matrix calcifies, chondrocytes die and deteriorate
Interstitial Growth: Growth in length of long bones
OSSIFICATION zone
chondrocyte deterioration leaves long spicules of calcified carilage at epiphysis -diaphysis junction
Spicules eroded by OSTEOCLASTS
Covered with new bone by OSTEOBLASTS
ultimately replaced with spongy bone
Interstitial Growth: Growth in length of long bones
Near end of adolescence CHONDROBLASTS DIVIDE LESS OFTEN
Epiphyseal plate thins then is replaced by bone
EPIPHYSEAL PLATE CLOSURE
_bone lengthening ceases
Appositional Growth: Growth in Width
Allows lengthening bone to WIDEN
Occurs throughout life
OSTEOBLASTS BENEATH PERIOSTEUM SECRETE BONE MATRIX ON EXTERNAL BONE
OSTEOCLASTS REMOVE BONE ON ENDOSTEAL SURFACE
Hormonal Regulation of Bone Growth
GROWTH HORMONE
-Most important in stimulation epiphyseal plate activity in infancy and choldhood
THYROID HORMONE
- modulates activity of growth hormone
- Ensures PROPER PROPORTIONS
Testosterone and Estrogens at puberty
- promotes adolescent growth spurts
- END GROWTH BY INDUCING EPIPHYSEAL PLATE CLOSURE
Bone homeostasis
Consists of BONE REMODELING AND BONE REPAIR
Bone homeostasis: Bone remodeling
Consist of both BONE DEPOSIT AND BONE RESORPTION
Remodeling units

 Blood Ca2+ levels

PTH release

PTH STIMULATES OSTEOCLASTS to degrade bone matrix, releasing Ca2+

Blood Ca2+ levels

PTH release ends
Bone Homeostasis: Response to
Mechanical Stress
• Bones reflect stresses they encounter
– Long bones THICKEST MIDWAY ALONG DIAPHYSIS where bending stresses greatest
• Bones stressed when weight bears on them or muscles pull on them
– Usually off center so tends to bend bones
– BENDING COMPRESSES ON ONE SIDE;STRETCHES ON OTHER
Results of Mechanical Stressors:
WOLFF'S LAW
• Bones grow or remodel in response to demands placed
on it
• Explains
– Handedness (right or left handed) results in thicker and stronger bone of that upper limb
– Curved bones thickest where most likely to buckle
– TRABECULAE FORM TRUSSES ALONG LINES OF STRSS
– Large, BONY PROJECTIONSs occur where heavy, ACTIVE MUSCLES ATTACH
– Bones of fetus and bedridden featureless
Results of Hormonal and Mechanical Influences
HORMONAL CONTROLS DETERMINE WHETHER AND WEHN REMODELING OCCURS TO CHANGING BLOOD CALCIUM LEVELS
MECHANICAL STRESS DETERMINES WHERE REMODELING OCCURS
Fracture Classification
KNOW DIFFERENT TYPES OF FRACTURES AND HOW WE DESCRIBE THEM AND KNOW THE THREE DIFF CAREGORIES THEN DESCRIBE WHAT ITS CALLED
THREE"EITHER/OR" FRACTURE CLASSIFICATIONS
THREE"EITHER/OR" FRACTURE CLASSIFICATIONS
– Position of bone ends after fracture
• Nondisplaced—ends retain normal position
• Displaced—ends out of normal alignment
– Completeness of break
• Complete—broken all the way through
• Incomplete—not broken all the way through
– Whether skin is penetrated
• Open (compound) - skin is penetrated
• Closed (simple) – skin is not penetrated
